Is there a reason the version.json location is different in 1.13?

I've noticed that the version.json for 1.13 is "\forge-1.13.2-###-installer\version.json" instead of "\forge-1.12.2-###-installer\forge-1.12.2-###-universal\version.json"

Is there a reason for this? Is it temporary? Is it going to apply to earlier MC versions soon?

[Kzitold]

Just curious.

The universal json was there for metadata. Nobody ever used it correctly so I removed it.

The version json in the launcher is because I figured it was stupid to have a json extracted from another json, instead of just extracted as a file.

Makes sense. So it's gonna be that way from now on?

[LexManos]

nope, I could change it at any moment. Our installer supports that.

There should however be no reason for you to need this file. So it shouldn't matter.
