May its soul rest in peace. +The xml export plugin for Coq has been discontinued for lack of users: +it was most certainly broken while imposing a non-negligible cost on +Coq development. Its purpose was to give export Coq's kernel objects +in xml form for treatment by external tools. -If you were looking for it, try contacting Claudio Sacerdoti-Coen, its original -author, at sacerdot@cs.unibo.it.
