If a theme seriously does not work with the current version of
wordpress, it should be retired.
I am assuming that we are trying to encourage people to work with the
latest release that they can.

I have been in situations where a plugin that I relied upon had not
been updated yet. (A shopping cart).
But if I need an old obsolete theme -- I probably already have it
installed on my site.

If I am theme hunting, it would be very disappointing to dl a theme
from wporg that is obsolete under the most current core.

Just my thoughts,
Claude Needham
