[theme-reviewers] Theme Check on theme uploader

[Edward Caissie]

Can the upload script be modified to allow for one version backward
comparability ... In this instance the function is noted as being deprecated
in 3.0 just make it a RECOMMENDED note?

one major version. So, I think 3.0 backward-compatibility is acceptable. :)
