The last that was done with it was to distribute it on alpha.gnu.org (https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/texinfo/texinfo-js-0.0.90.tar.gz) and advertise it on this mailing list. I don't know of anybody using it for a real purpose. I suppose bundling it into the regular Texinfo release would give it more visibility. It's likely that somebody would like to use it. It is less than a MB when compressed and wouldn't increase the package size too much. In a separate development, I started a WebKitGTK based browser for Texinfo HTML documentation, but lost interest in it. (Embeddable HTML renderers all seem quite awkward to use.) I've posted about this before on this list.
