That's certainly a good idea, here they are:

   http://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/salimma/sphinx12/

Built for F-20; Rawhide builds are ongoing at present.


I probably wouldn't do a side tag -- the downside seems to outweigh the 
upside -- but do let me know if any problem crops up with 
Sphinx-dependent packages. I'll probably push a Rawhide update at the 
end of the month unless there are major breakages, but will keep the 
F-20 build in copr unless there are strong requests to push it as an update.

Best regards,
