I believe BSF has been approved for inclusion as part of the Jakarta Project.
Is there anything I can do to help this happen? February is a long time in the past, and as a past user of BSF, and a Jakarta committer I'd be happy to help where I can. Also, have mailing lists etc been setup? I haven't seen them anywhere...? -- dIon Gillard, Multitask Consulting Work: http://www.multitask.com.au Developers: http://adslgateway.multitask.com.au/developers ----- Forwarded by dIon Gillard/Multitask Consulting/AU on 30/10/2002 07:16 PM ----- "Noel J.
