We definitely need better understanding here. I just played with the latest 
version, and it now asks me to define LAYERSERIES_COMPAT_mylayer - so far, so 
clear. Now I'm having already dependencies on latest and greatest Isar in my 
layer so that I added

LAYERSERIES_COMPAT_mylayer = "v0.7"

to express that I actually need >v0.6. But that breaks the build:

ERROR: Layer mylayer is not compatible with the core layer which only supports 
these series: v0.6 (layer is compatible with v0.7)

Should we have now

LAYERSERIES_CORENAMES = "v0.6 v0.7"

in Isar? Or something like

LAYERSERIES_CORENAMES = "v0.6 next"

?
