I wouldn't mind converting the media books to use 3.0 style if
they work as expected.
Yet, if we convert, we need to change the minimal version requirement
to follow it.
Sphinx 3.x is still too new. I bet distros don't bring it yet.
Ok, the default procedure is to pick it using pip or venv. So,
no bit issue, IMHO.
Also, as Jon mentioned, it takes about twice the time for the
doc build.
Not sure if it is worth.
Thanks,
Mauro
