 This plugin lets ikwiki convert files with names ending in ".rst" to html.
 It uses the [reStructuredText](http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html)
-markup syntax. You need to have the python-docutils module installed to use
-it.
+markup syntax. You need to have [[!cpan RPC::XML]], python and the
+python-docutils module installed to use it.
 
 Note that this plugin does not interoperate very well with the rest of
 ikiwiki. Limitations include:
 
-* reStructuredText does not allow raw html to be inserted into
-  documents, but ikiwiki does so in many cases, including
-  [[WikiLinks|WikiLink]] and many
-  [[PreprocessorDirectives|PreprocessorDirective]].
-* It's slow; it forks a copy of python for each page. While there is a
-  perl version of the reStructuredText processor, it is not being kept in
-  sync with the standard version, so is not used.
+* There are issues with inserting raw html into documents, as ikiwiki 
+  does with [[WikiLinks|ikiwiki/WikiLink]] and many 
+  preprocessor [[directives|ikiwiki/directive]].
 
 So while you may find this useful for importing old files into your wiki,
 using this as your main markup language in ikiwiki isn't recommended at
 this time.
