It's better than just a Perl module, definitely, it's still an external
dependency that can't be managed like any other Python library (i.e. not
auto-installable via pip in a virtualenv) and is bound to be way less
efficient than if we could just generate all HTML pages in a single Python
process (instead of forking a Perl interpreter for each changelog to
convert).
