o/ I'd like to request a feature freeze exception for the aforementioned packages to include fixes we recently merged: * WSME 0.12.1 includes two fixes to the Sphinx extension to fix compatibility with recent Sphinx versions. There are also additional fixes to address compatibility with Python 3.11 (by switching from nose to pytest, by replacing use of pkg_utils with importlib.metadata, and by replacing use of inspect.getargspec with inspect.getfullargspec). * sphinxcontrib-pecanwsme 0.11.0 includes a fix for Python 3.11 compatibility (replacing use of inspect.getargspec with inspect.getfullargspec), drops support for Python < 3.8, and removes the use of six. I've included a summary of the git logs below. I would argue that both version bumps are low-risk and address issues we're seeing in the gates of multiple projects. I would also argue that bumping these versions is a lower risk strategy than the alternative proposal, namely the reintroduction of a cap on the Sphinx version used to a version released nearly 18 months ago [2] (!!). Finally, I would argue that this would be the preferred approach by our packagers (zigo, are you there?). The change is available [3] and waiting for reviews. Cheers, Stephen PS: Why WSME 0.12.1 rather than 0.12.0, you ask? You can blame a typo [4] for that 🙈 [1] https://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2023-September/03519...
