Everything was ported (as of August 28 anyway)[0], except for the 
specifications: from what I can tell, Sphinx does not support PEP-RST[1] (it 
does not understand the PEP header directives, so they are not displayed in the 
output), I did not get any answer when I asked about it on the pocoo IRC 
channel and google searches have failed to yield any information.

Way forward I'd see would be adding a target to Sphinx's makefile to use 
Docutils directly to compile the PEPs, and linking to them as if they were 
static HTML documents, but I do not know if RTD supports that. You'd have to 
ask someone more knowledgeable (Graham has already ported the mod_wsgi docs so 
he might know). From RTD's documentation, it seems accounts can be whitelisted 
for code execution[2], Graham probably wouldn't have any issue getting flagged 
for a pair of bilding commands (and barring that, the compiled PEPs could 
always be committed to the repo).

In the long run, having a pep sphinx extension might be nice.
