Since more than a decade, we support BibTeX as XML as import and export format.

Although the code is clean, it seems that BibTeXML is not used by anyone - and even the original author says, it is dead. See Zearin/BibTeXML#1

This would mean to remove

  • org.jabref.logic.importer.fileformat.BibTeXMLImporter
  • org.jabref.logic.exporter.BibTeXMLExporter

and related classes / test files.
