It's also a different codebase, specifically designed to run as a web service (while calibre-server was somewhat "tacked on" later on). Would be great if some other python maintainer took a look at it, as I have very little free time nowadays, but since I'm looking at moving away from Calibre for some things (especially exposed to the network), I may look into this eventually.
