+Previously, the CLI would print a deprecation warning if a client\r
+requested any format version other than the current one. However, if\r
+we add fields that are backwards-compatible, but want clients to be\r
+able to depend on, we need to bump the version, but that doesn't make\r
+the older version deprecated.\r
+\r
+Hence, separate out the "minimum active" version and only print a\r
+warning for requests below this version number.\r
