I've simply had a lack of time to extend the framework on arswiki.org. The
code I wrote is available under the BSD license, so it's gratis. I'm not
aware of any licensing restrictions that BMC imposes on what you write. If
anyone wants to extend what I started, I can incorporate that into the
existing project as long as they are willing to release it under the BSD
license.
I think the largest issue is that there are not too many people that are
skilled with both Java and ARS and of the ones that are, they are probably
too busy or not inclined to give code away.

** I was curious whether anyone has written their own custom

DVF app, but they seem like a good solution to include enhanced
functionality without the pain other types of customizations can cause,
namely upgrades. You obviously need to have a Java/Web skillset, but there
are a lot of people out there who do. However, I don't hear many people
talking about DVF, beyond what is included in the OOB apps.
I know a while back, the DVF Framework (code to make it easier to write DVF
apps that interact with forms, integrate security, etc), that BMC
distributed had some restrictive licensing language. On the arswiki, there
is some discussion of these licensing issues, but nothing current. Is this
part of the reason?
