Huh, I thought this project was retired upstream.... I'm curious what you
need it for
It seems to be alive again, latest version was released a few months ago
(
https://xmlbeans.apache.org/download/).
It's now under under the apache poi umbrella.
Some of the scripts in xmlbeans-scripts are used by diffoscope.
I don't know the details.
