Replying to my own message! I wonder if ViewPlus would like to be 
mentioned on the liblouis page. They are using both liblouis and 
liblouisxml in their TSS software, which is a commercial assistive 
technology application. In fact, they have provided resources to me 
which have made the development of the libraries possible. 

Waiting to hear from John Gardner.
