Pnuts' engine would be very likely to be added, so long as the code submitted falls under a license compatible w/ BSF's (i.e. the same as all Jakarta projects). License compatiblity is the primary concern, but we would also like for those who submit engines to help keep them up-to-date with respect to changes in their language engines and changes in BSF - though we do a fair amount of trying to keep our current flock of languages working. That said, as we add more engines, the job of maintenance should fall more to the contributor. I think that's all; others will correct me, if there are other issues that I have missed - but I am sure those are the 2 main concerns. I look forward to the submission of the Pnuts engine!
