It is even "Licensed to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF)" and so
should be importable even in source-code form - although that might be
better towards Apache Commons BSF than under Apache Taverna -

Dredging my memory, there was some attempt to support BSF in Taverna 1 but it did not work well.


https://code.google.com/p/beanshell2/ is a fork which seems to be more
active (but remains LGPL :-( ).

That is what I was playing with for running Beanshells in a more general script activity as it (correctly IMO) works with javax.script

Actually now I see that the Beanshell 2.0b4 (which we use) is
dual-licensed and also available as "Sun Public License" -  which
could somewhat be OK under Apache:

https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-b


So.. given this - what should we do? It seems we don't need to move
Beanshell ACtivity out of Apache Taverna after all. (yay!)

I agree, "yay!" and we can worry later about subsuming beanshells into something more general.
