Hey - I've left some high level feedback:

  • Since Sphinx 9.1.0 drops Python 3.11 support, confirm that your supported Python versions and CI matrix no longer include 3.11 or that you’re comfortable with any resulting incompatibility.
  • Sphinx 9.1.0 no longer supports Docutils 0.20, so consider explicitly constraining the docutils dependency (e.g., to >=0.21) to avoid subtle runtime issues if an older version is being pulled in elsewhere.
