The Apache Jakarta BSF team announces the release of BSF 3.0.

 Apache Jakarta BSF 3 is an open-source implementation of JSR-223, "Scripting for the Java Platform".

 [BSF3 was developed according to the JSR-223 specs, but has not yet been tested using the JSR-223 TCK.]

 See http://jakarta.apache.org/bsf/

 This is a bug-fix release to correct a problem that was  discovered with 3.0-beta3:
 * BSF-35 Wrong parameter type for [Simple]Bindings.put - key must be a String, not an Object

 The release also includes an updated test application.
 This version of BSF requires Java 1.4 or later.

 The release can be downloaded from:
 http://jakarta.apache.org/site/downloads/downloads_bsf.cgi

 When downloading, please verify signatures using the KEYS file.
 All users running earlier versions of 3.0 are recommended to upgrade.

 Note that BSF 3.0 is not compatible with BSF 2.4, which uses a different API.

 Enjoy!
