Hi, just found this project and I am looking forward to use it in the future. Today I just wanted to have a quick sneak peek but couldn't because it seems like the default registry only supplies version 0.6.0 when using julia 1.4.1.

So I see that version 1.5 is specified in the Project.toml but the tests seemingly run on Julia 1.x too? Further, the error message down below seems to suggest that only version < 0.6 is allowed.

I'll see to install julia 1.5 another day, but thought this might be of interest for you?

@Datseris will be able to confirm, but as far as I can remember, I think that some features were not properly functioning with Julia < 1.5.

Hi,

https://github.com/JuliaClimate/ClimateBase.jl/blob/master/.github/workflows/ci.yml#L18

actually tests run on Julia 1.5, and now on julia 1.6 which is latest stable. 1.6 is the new LTS version of Julia, I personally do not see a reason to support previous versions. Indeed we needed something from 1.5, which I dont recall precicely now what it was.

Indeed, since 1.6 is probably the new LTS, I propose to close this issue.
