Full details of the proposal, and the ability to record your vote can be done via community-topic#55.

antsibull-docs 2.6.0 has been released with a fix for EXAMPLES parsing and error message improvements.

More than two years ago the Ansible Docs Working Group started discussing the use of semantic markup for Ansible plugin/module documentation. This resulted in a specification that has been implemented as proofs of concept both for ansible-doc and the validate-modules sanity test, as well as for antsibull-docs. From the docs perspective this will improve plugin, module, and now also role documentation a lot, and in particular separate markup from content. (Right now you have to use C(...) and I(...) for values and option names, which stand for 'code-style' and 'italics'.)

antsibull-core 2.0.0a1 has been released. This major release drops support for Python 3.6, 3.7, and 3.8 and deprecates some compatability code (full changelog). It also includes a new feature needed by antsibull-build. antsibull-core houses shared code used by antsibull-build and antsibull-docs. If you use either of these tools, please help us test this new release. It can be installed with pip install -U antsibull-core==2.0.0a1. Note that you'll need the latest version of antsibull and antsibull-docs to use antsibull-core 2.0.0a1.

antsibull-docs 1.3.0 (changelog) has been released with several new features for the docs build! The most important changes are that now booleans are rendered as true and false instead of yes and no (https://github.com/ansible-community/community-topics/issues/116), and that a proper parser is used for Ansible markup, which properly escapes for example backticks instead of simply inserting them into the RST files (https://github.com/ansible-community/antsibull-docs/issues/21).

If you are using the antsibull-docs or antsibull-lint collection-docs CLI command from the antsibull package, consider switching to using the new antsibull-docs 1.0.0 package instead! It is more stable and comes with less potential baggage to carry around.
