Hi;

I like it. I've been thinking that we should campaign moving
opensource extensions to apache-extras, as it could make
things easier for maintainers if they don't want to sign
an ICLA.
Of course I won't complain if you think it's better to include
this directly.

Pedro.

Hi all,

I wanted to gauge the interest in including Groovy [1] as a scripting
language.

For those not familiar, Groovy is a dynamic language for the JVM that
includes features like closures, builders, and dynamic typing.

There is currently a Groovy For OpenOffice extension [2] for this
available under LGPL. I have contacted the author regarding
additionally licensing the extension as Apache and he would be willing
to do that to include it.

Groovy itself is under the Apache 2.0 so I thought it may be a good fit.

I am willing to work on this if there is interest.

Best regards,
Carl
