As I recall, docutils was moving more quickly at the time, and wasn't being 
released regularly, so there was some merit in freezing which version was 
used for PEPs.  Another factor was to avoid the additional checkout which 
would have been needed.

I'd be happy enough to see this changed, but I suspect there are still others 
who will disagree.
