I share your concerns. The general question is what to do with such
projects, and I think we should be open to creative ideas. There has been
some suggestion that they be cleaned up by migrating them to some other
domain to be mothballed. The code, web site, and mailing list archives
would be preserved, and could be restored at such time in the future when a
community might arise.

I am a fan of BSF, and would like to see that thrive. We are making some
use of it in JAMES, which I expect will expand; have proposed use of it in
the Directory server; and I would like to see other projects, e.g.,
Geronimo, avail themselves of BSF.

The suggestion has been made to merge both into Jakarta Commons. I believe
that both are still in fairly widespread use, despite J2SE 1.4 adding
regular expressions to the core library.
