[karrtikr]

I believe the bug is here:

vscode-python/src/client/proposedApi.ts

Line 34 in f1d0509

ver.push(`${env.version.release}`);

, as release is an object, could returning the PythonVersion object instead of string[] be more appropriate instead? cc/ @karthiknadig

[karthiknadig]

We should standardize the version info first before we decide to return an object. I chose to return a string[] here for that reason.
