First up, thank you for the awesome bibutils, they are a gem for the community.
Secondly I wanted to share a problem related to an Endnote XML file conversion.
When I ran endx2xml on the file, it failed to parse the title of the publication.
I have attached the xml files for reference. Please help me in this matter.
Thanks for the report. I found the bug that was preventing titles from being output properly. I will upload a fixed version shortly.
I've also solved one problem parsing the names in this file.
However, I wonder if the names in the Endnote file aren't entered correctly. The format of the names really confuses my name parsing algorithms and I suspect that Endnote will generate odd names from them as well.
For example, in the second reference you have:
Alexander A. Samuel
and Bruin, De Arie
and Kornet D J
But after looking up the reference, I suspect that it should be:
Alexander A. Samuel
and Arie de Bruin
and D. J. Kornet
or
Samuel, Alexander A
and de Bruin, Arie
and Koren, D. J.
Similarly, the last reference has:
Gaucher A. Eric
and Kratzer, T. James
and Randall N Ryan
but I suspect that it should be something like
Gaucher, Eric A.
and Kratzer, James T.
and Randall, Ryan N.
Thanks.
Chris.

Thanks Chris for the quick reply, yes author names are not correct in the file. Actually I exported this file from mendeley and I can not recall where have I imported these references in my mendeley library. I will correct author names in my mendeley library.
Also thank you for fixing title issue so fast, can you give any ETA when this fix will be available in latest release?
Thanks,
Fahad

The latest version (7.2) has this fix in it. Let me know if you see any more issues.
Thanks again.
Chris.
