converting Word to MediaWiki

[ChiTownBob]

I'm trying to convert our documentation over to the Wikipedia format 
(MediaWiki), and about ready to give up on the Perl-based method I found 
(because Perl just sucks, as all good Python hackers know!).  Perl 
really IS a write-only language.

rather than mess with Word formats directly, I had converted the Word 
files to HTML first, then ran HTML::WikiConverter.

SO:  is there anything out there in Python that can translate HTML to 
popular Wiki formats?

Thanks

Bob
