Just noticed that there was some activity on GitHub related to BSF (e.g.
<https://github.com/apache/commons-bsf/pull/1> (updating to JUnit 4.13.1),
<https://github.com/apache/commons-bsf/pull/2> (dependabot), and the like), but
I cannot find any
discussions about it in dev@commons or in user@commons so wondering about this.
Regarding BSF 2.4 it would be important to have a Java minimum requirement that
allows for using it
in rather old Java runtime environments so I would be a little bit preoccupied
if the policy is to
upgrade the dependencies to the latest versions such that e.g. BSF 2.4 could
not be deployed against
e.g. Java 1.6/6 anymore.
So seeking information about where discussions/decisions took place or should
take place w.r.t. BSF?

P.S.: Also it would be interesting to learn whether there is a demand for
creating a BSF 2.5 release?
P.P.S.: Readying a script taglib that allows scripts in any script language
using the Apache Commons
BSF 2.4 to be used for creating web pages (and in this context even allowing
servlets to be
implemented with scripts), testing currently against Tomcat 9 ("javax.") and
Tomcat 10 ("jakarta.").
Tests being developed and carried out for [BSF4]ooRexx and Groovy (also PHP
using the JSR-223
sibling script taglib).
