Compatibility with JSON Schema draft-06 and draft-07

[handrews]

Hi folks,
I'm dropping by from the JSON Schema specification project to let you know that JSON Schema is now up to draft-07, with an increasing number of implementations supporting at least draft-06 and a few supporting draft-07. (draft-05 was a wording improvement of draft-04 and is not separately implemented).

Since you are generating schemas, I believe that all you would have to do to claim compatibility is:

• Be able to produce draft-06 and/or draft-07 $schema values.

• Support using $id instead of id (changed in draft-06, id was too easily confused with very common "id" instance object properties)

• If you use exclusiveMinimum or exclusiveMaximum, they are now numbers instead of being boolean modifiers to minimum or maximum (changed in draft-06)

• Make sure that you are only using $ref where a schema is expected (most people do this already)

  On the json-schema.org web site, we will be moving tools that support only draft-04 and older to a separate page for legacy/obsolete implementations. The main implementations page will focus on tools supporting draft-06 or later.

  Please let me know if you have any questions, and of course feel free to close this if you will not be updating. This is a notification, not a demand :-)
