It's still floating around in my head, but some of the most common
requests and questions are "how do I get this nice syntatic sugar that
groovy, perl, etc. whatever offers."

You can kind of do some of this with commands (this is what we do), but
I wonder if there's some way to offer the facility without building the
sugar into the language.  It's still java scripting, but if there's
something odd in your problem domain you can go ahead and set it up.
Operator overloading is a common request (I'm not a big fan of it)...

I apologize for the lull in activity and communications on the project.
But rest assured that things will be picking up soon.

This should happen on two fronts:

First, I'd like to get some input from the community in prioritizing the
bug list so that we can draw a line and finalize the current release.  I
am looking into setting up a bug voting system on the new bug reporting
system.

Next, the JSR-274 group is getting organized.  This has been delayed a
bit (by me) but I hope to get the group meeting on a regular basis soon
so that we can present a plan for BeanShell 3.0 at this year's JavaOne.


Thanks,
Pat
