If this is about deprecated functions, then they should be surrounding things in function_exists checks, so proper functions get run when they are available. If the upload script catches such functions, then it's still not our problem. That's the solution, really... Don't worry about it, and let the upload script bark at them.</blockquote>
</div><br>I would say my only real concern with backward compatibility is the use of deprecated functions, and as far as that goes, I would agree to let the theme uploader script take the heat for not allowing a Theme into the review queue versus it being "not-approved" for using them ... with the proviso the most current and correct function is used first as suggested with 'function_exists' wrappers.<br>
