If you include just the taglib (the JSR-223 to be created), then its
usage would be restricted to Java 6 and up, such that current Java 1.4
and 1.5 installations in the field could not take advantage of it.

To cover Java 1.4 and 1.5 BSF 3.0 got created, which implements the
javax.script specifications. If BSF 3.0 is included then the scripting
support will be available from Java 1.4 on. Starting with Java 6 the
Java 6 javax.script would prevail due to using its own package by
placement of the classes.
