Rony, Thanks so much for your patience, and support of BSF. Basically, we need to talk about the license for your code, and how maintenance will occur (whether you will maintain the code separately, whether we need to maintain it, etc.). There is also the question of, should BSF gain the ability to auto-load languages (requires discussion on this list) in the near future, would you still want your code to be part of the main distribution. Let's work out the details of getting 2.3 out the door (my preference being that it should look more like 2.2, w/ auto-loading), and we can work out the details of getting your code in (should you still desire that) at that point.
