Hi Wilfred,
Thanks for the detailed update.

The sandbox instance is still running on the 18.03 release version of both
Fineract and the front-end.
and Fineract 1.5 is compatible with the Mifos release version 21.07 or the
latest Develop branch.

Backward Compatibility sounds good technically but will be challenging on
the functional/feature side and also at branch maintenance.
For example: Fineract might have new features developed, but backward
Compatible Mifos may not have the screens to use that and vise-verse.

Mifos /Fineract follows the approach of adding fixes/features on the
develop branch always and does the tag cut-off during the release process.
Hence I feel we should always go with the latest of both code bases or the
correct release version codebases to get the full benefit of the
features/changes made.

Latest releases
Fineract: 1.5 https://github.com/apache/fineract/releases/tag/1.5.0
Community App:
https://github.com/openMF/community-app/releases/tag/MIFOSX-21.07.01.RELEASE

Having said my opinion, I will leave it open to the community around this
discussion, we could always go with what is best for the users.
