Hi Simon,
I tried to understand the topic. Can help me?

1) https://pypi.org/project/sphinxcontrib-moderncmakedomain/ states:
  "This is taken directly from the Kitware git repository's Utilities
directory."
Why should anybody maintain a copy of CMake's utility folder? Is it not
possible to use the file from there?

2) Further:
   "The original sphinxcontrib-cmakedomain has not been touched in quite
some and as a result it wildly out of date."
How is this repository related?

3) I welcome the general idea for having a nicer looking / better
accessible documentation. But can it still be build without the newly
introduced external dependency?

Bye
Christoph
