Is version 1.0 of xmlutils compatible with Splunk 6.2?

We will be upgrading our Splunk servers from Splunk 5 to Splunk 6.2 soon. We are trying to verify whether all of our apps are compatible with Splunk 6.2.
The compatibility list for version 1.0 of the xmlutils app only lists Splunk 5.0, 4.3, 4.2, 4.1, and 4.0. This is the latest version of the app.

Is this app compatible with Splunk 6.2? If not, should we remove it after upgrading, or will some functionality still work (and what breaks in 6.2?)

The commands appear to be compatible. I tried the following on 6.2 and 6.3.1 with success:

| xmlkvrecursive
| xmlkvrecursive | xmlkvrecursive flatten=true
| xmlsplit
| xmlprettyprint

Amazing that these are not native to Splunk yet. Very useful commands vbumgarner.

I haven't tested it, but I really can't imagine why it wouldn't be compatible. They're simple python commands.

If you're not using it, remove it.
