Jython compiles Python to Java bytecode. Additionally, BSF interprets
Python, so you can go either route. On Windows, BSF even supports
JScript and VBScript, so there are two more languages that one can use
with both Java and .NET. Of course, in all case the class libraries are
different.

I think you have a misunderstanding here. BlueDragon and BlueDragon.NET
are not two completely separate code bases. What they have is actually
quite maintainable. However, I am really unsure of what details I can
share, so I'll play it safe and share none.
