It is (largely) software written in python.  I based the name on py26-markdown which is also a tool written in python that can be installed against py25 or py26.  I didn't want to step on pmq's port or force current users to have to update to py26, but I have a py25-free install and so it seemed useful to have in dports...

Thanks,
Eric
