Project type "other" is not allowed according to template JSON schema

When I type dotnet new --help the output also contains the following line:

–type Filters templates based on available types. Predefined values are “project”, “item” or “other”

So it seems that “other” might be a valid value. But in http://json.schemastore.org/template only “project” and “item” is allowed.

I would like to make a template that creates a solution with multiple projects. What would be the correct project type for this? My guess would have been that it’s “other”.

Ok, thank you, that makes sense. Just as a side note: The template sln ist still of type other:

> dotnet new --type other
These templates matched your input: type='other'.
Templates          Short Name      Language    Tags
-------------      ----------      --------    --------
Solution File      sln                         Solution

Added solution type to schema, and docs. other won’t be reverted. CLI allows to filter for any types, not only predefined.
