Well, except for the one edit it hasn't seen activity in 4 years. Not so 
much for applications but when I'm deciding if I will use libfoobar in a 
project I always check the activity.

I've been using expat almost as long as it's been around and they're still 
poking at it.  I've never encountered a bug but apparently there is always 
something to do, mostly security fixes lately. If I saw the hypothetical 
libfoobar hadn't been touched in 4 years I'd look for alternatives. True, 
maybe it is so good it hasn't needed work.
