I got this error while trying to build ACT-Rules-format-1.1
For full context, see
Something's gone wrong with the remote data; I can't read its timestamp. Please report this!

Is there anything we should be updating in the spec?

Not in your spec, but in your CI - likely, you're specifying an old Ubuntu, which only has Python 3.8, so you've actually been stuck on an old Bikeshed for a while now. See #2946

(Alternately, if you're building locally, you just have an old Python. Update to at least Python 3.9, and then pip install --upgrade bikeshed)

thanks, that was indeed the reason for the failure.
