- All three refs show only that X-Smiles has at least five part-time users. The works keep focused on their topics using X-Smiles as a test environment. Given that all works belong to the period of infancy of the respective technologies, the choice of testbed should be considered an indication of software's capabilities, which are not directly translatable to notability (which can't be established from these sources). — Dmitrij D.
