Thanks, that also answers if and how Adobe may currently use it.

Unlike commercial closed-source vendors, I am not aware, that Apache
projects put references on their sites (only sponsors are mentioned, we
discussed this, though I don't think the site ever reflected it) However
like benchmarks a certain list of known references can't hurt. Aside from
open source projects or blogs, who tend to be a little more open to "new
fancy stuff" especially large corporate clients are much more conservative,
which is why breaking with backward-compatibility or tying a certain client
to certain data sets seems acceptable, if we can't handle flexibility like
e.g. DetectRight or others do, but expecially business critical users must
have a choice whether they want to use a 1.x format (closer to W3C
especially the XML structure) or move to something else. There it's usually
up to a project having to change an existing system while they just want
updates or improvements to the existing device data if provided without
touching the code in production.
