See original GitHub issue

Steps to reproduce:

Clone https://github.com/odewahn/ipynb-examples

Yes these are NB Format 3.0 files. They’re more than 6 years old. This probably isn’t necessary for our first release.

@georgewfraser Given the age of this issue and the fact it hasn’t had any upvotes (nor have I seen duplicates entered) I don’t think we have the time and resources to address this problem in the near future. Closing for now. Please reopen with additional details if you think that this is the wrong decision. 😃
