Description

See https://docs.valence.desire2learn.com/basic/version.html#checking-for-version-support

After https://github.com/hypothesis/lms/pull/5077 we should be in non-legacy version for the products we use.

It's not enterly clear what the right strategy is that:

  • Doesn't auto update to newer versions
  • Doesn't reject versions that in theory should be end of live but than in practice work for our propose.
