Hi there,
Sanka asked me to coin a "release note".
Are there any boilterexts that are common on Jakarta? If not, I would
come up with something and post it here for feedback/review by Friday
(tomorrow) night (European time-zone ;) ), such that Sanka can call a
vote by this weekend.

Did replace the Rexx-related URLs in the resources source page
"xdocs/resources.xml", but have not committed it yet. If any
script-engine suppliers want links to be placed there, please send them in.

One thing while going through the web-site: it seems that there is no
link to the sample page?
Looking at the samples I noticed that some exist that only could work on
Windows, as they need the OLE/ActiveX support there. AFAIK the C++
support for OLE/ActiveX could not be handed over by IBM due to licensing
issues. As such these samples won't work unless some kind soul pops up
and tackles the creation of that needed infrastructure for those
samples. Therefore at this time it may not make sense to show them,
unless there are Windows-independent samples available as well.
For that reason I would suggest to make the following sample directories
available via the BSF website:
* samples/bsh
* samples/calc
* samples/scriptedui
* samples/xsl
The following sample directories seem to be tied into the Windows
platform at the moment, but could probably be changed such, that they
could run in a platform independent fashion using the Apache BSF taglib:
* samples/jsp
* samples/jsplike (?)
* samples/multiplication_test
Any takers for these ?
Regards
