There are a few of us that keep an eye on wsme, so I would not say it's unmaintained.
I too would lean towards a wsme release, but changing requirements this late is problematic.
I think if we want to do this release we should do it now so that the project teams can get any fixes needed before the final RCs next week.

Hi all,
I'm writing to request FFE for https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/requirements/+/896018 Revert "Bump Sphinx to the latest version" as it broke the gate of at least following projects: Aodh https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/build/5df111c602944396bf6e334e1bec4e42 Solum https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/build/e4b170cc25f2428caadce8870d27c62e Mistral https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/build/a3e00a6312cf46059fa81c56fe9b5e11
Stephen kindly provided monkeypathing for Aodh as alternative https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/aodh/+/896125 With kind regards that we shouldn't revert this breaking patch due to it being breaking via wsme dependency that is apparently not really maintained anymore. I'd be easily agreeing with that if Aodh was the only project suffering the breakage or using it at all, but the lib is in use for about dozen openstack projects and this dependency bump broke the gates for three of them.
Other alternative for this is that wsme would get released (the fix is merged already) and we would bump that in the upper constraints. I would personally prefer any other option than needing to monkeypatch/vendor the wsme code in the projects long enough that we can find a solution to remove it as dependency across.
Thanks for looking into this,
