Thanks, just like I expected. Hopefully every at least remotely modern dependency/package manager has some sort of citeseer equivalent in its ecosystem.

And your last paragraph nicely illustrates the blindness we get from closed projects/products not publishing their dependency metadata. I suppose that for client side js a tiny subset of usage stats could be generated by CDN distribution, but repackaging is a thing (and for good reason, in many cases)
