Compatibility with older versions of Truffle #17

When you removed truffle.js, you broke compatibility with older versions of Truffle (Truffle 4.0.x). And since there is no mechanism in Truffle to know which versions of which box are compatible with each version of Truffle, this is very annoying. I am creating a Udemy course that relies heavily on Truffle, and last time we updated it, we used Truffle 4.0. So now our students try truffle init and get an error saying there is no valid box here. Could you please add truffle.js again to keep compatibility with older versions of Truffle, or maybe add a mechanism to Truffle to let it download different versions of the same box depending on which version of Truffle is running?

Im having the same problem with problem 4.1.13. Please fix this as not everyone is running latest versions.
