This academic search engine relies on #libxml2 in several places. After harvesting bibliographic metadata (mostly OAI XML) from thousands of publication repositories, we process it using libxml2 and #libxslt.
We are operating on a tiny budget, so all we can do is to hope that the maintainer of libxslt will be able to cope with maintaining libxml2 as well (as he just offered) – and extend our gratitude to the #FreeSoftware community on whose shoulders we are standing.
