For 2011-08-17 (a test whether commiting has become possible as well):

	- incorporate all RFEs for BSF 2.4

	- possibly create a JSR-223-adapter for BSF 2.4 (there are engines for BSF 2.4 for which no JSR-223 engines exist; in addition it may buy time for deployments that have a mix of BSF 2.4 and JSR-223)


-------------------------- cut here (from 2006) ------------------------------
For 2006-09-25 the TODO list would consist at least from the following items:

        - add new BSF engines for BSF 2.4

        - create a new BSF 3.0 which complies to JSR-223 (which is part of Java 6),
          some features being

          - BSF 3.0 will be available as FOSS for earlier version of Java

          - BSF 3.0 may get an internal adapter for employing the numerous BSF 2.4
            engines transparently

          - ...
