    Which projects still use BeanShell? I have not heard of BeanShell since... idk 2012? or something, who is maintaining it as well, I would hope someone didn't just fork it and Oracle owns the rights to it somehow? Was Sun fully involved with BeanShell? I don't recall some of this.

    Love seeing old projects come back to life though.

      A fairly large community of people use MicroManager to run and automate microscopes, which is an extremely overgrown ImageJ plugin.

    This website is the most soulful thing I've seen today.

      I will remember today with a smile in face as the day I met Beany[0].

        "Beany can be bad" "LGPL"

        I mean, LGPL isn't THAT bad, but made me chuckle.

    Hell yeah, I loved beanshell! We used to use it in Android development to give our apps a debug repl, telnet-style. It was so nice, if antiquated even back then. Excited to see this worthy project continue.
