TeX subset into MathML conversion? (as a Perl module, ideally)

So far, I've found three free software packages that allow for
TeX (subset) into (presentational) MathML conversion [1-3].

The goal is to make an Ikiwiki [4] extension to allow for easier
typesetting of formulae. As the former is based on Perl, I'm
somewhat inclined to take the LaTeXML [1] code as the basis,
though I guess it still may take considerable effort to extract
the relevant parts into a separate Perl module.

On the contrary, [2, 3] aren't in Perl, and thus will probably
take much more effort to adapt to be used conveniently from
Perl.

Or should I use LaTeX::TOM [5] instead?

I wonder, is there anything else I should consider?

ACK, thanks. Do I understand it correctly that it's free
software (as per [1])?
