I've simply had a lack of time to extend the framework on arswiki.org. The code I wrote is available under the BSD license, so it's gratis. I'm not aware of any licensing restrictions that BMC imposes on what you write. If anyone wants to extend what I started, I can incorporate that into the existing project as long as they are willing to release it under the BSD license.
I think the largest issue is that there are not too many people that are skilled with both Java and ARS and of the ones that are, they are probably too busy or not inclined to give code away.
