Now that upper bounds are getting to be commonplace, it may be worth contemplating propagating the bounds to earlier versions. I am aware that this is scary, but so is not doing it: JuliaGraphics/ColorTypes.jl#143

Have you seen https://github.com/bcbi/RetroCap.jl?

Personally, I believe that we should add upper bounds to the earlier versions of all packages in the registry. But I don’t think that currently there is a lot of support for this plan.

In the meantime, you can use RetroCap to do it for all packages in your GitHub orgs.

Looks like RetroCap will do the job for us, definitely a star-worthy package!

I am traveling for the next couple of days so will wait to tackle this until I can deal with any fallout 😄 .
