From ChangeLog:
2011-09-23 unidecode 0.04.9
* Fixed Python 2.5 installation issue.
2011-09-22 unidecode 0.04.8
* License change to GPL to fit better with other Python modules and
to remove the issue of depending on Perl for licensing terms.
* Always return a string object on Python 2.x. Before this patch,
unidecode() returned a unicode object on Python 2.x if the input
was a unicode object that contained ASCII characters. Behaviour
on Python 3.x remains unchanged. (thanks to Wesley Yarde)

takes Unicode data and tries to represent it in ASCII characters
(i.e., the universally displayable characters between 0x00 and 0x7F).
The representation is almost always an attempt at *transliteration*
-- i.e., conveying, in Roman letters, the pronunciation expressed by
the text in some other writing system. (See the example above)
