-<h1>Jakarta BSF Version 2.4.0</h1>
+<html>
+<body>
+<h1>Jakarta BSF versions</h1>
+<p>There are two different versions of Jakarta BSF. These have different APIs.
+<ul>
+<li>The original version of BSF is represented by the BSF 2.x releases (current version 2.4),
+and uses an API which was originally developed at IBM.</li>
+<li>The new version of Jakarta BSF is represented by the 3.x release (current version 3.0). 
+The 3.x version uses the API defined as part of JSR-223 (javax.script), which is included in Java 1.6 onwards. 
+However BSF 3.0 will run on Java 1.4+, allowing access to JSR-223 scripting for Java 1.4 and Java 1.5.</li>
+</ul> 
 
-<p>This is the 2.4.0 version of BSF. It is available in both binary and source distributions.</p>
