At this point, we haven't concrete decided on which way to go either way. If there is the willingness to drop the beanshell backend, then we probably need to plan for this and decide for sure.
If we go for the Clojure backend, for example, I wonder whether it is possible to support both clojure and beanshell at once, which would allow an easy migration path. I suspect not, unfortunately. In which case, we either have to maintain a fork for a good time, or effectively freeze the current JDEE, then move to the new backend, which probably means breaking current features.
