Afaik, bsf-api is a module built along apache-bsf-3.0 which is
intended to be used
with jdks prior to 1.6.0 (it provides the JSR-223 api defined in 1.6
with javax.script).

If your package only needs the api and you dont mind requiring java >= 1.6.0,
just strip away the dep from the pom. If you also need the
implementation, you need
to package bsf-3.0 and install its poms for maven (possible java
package names clash
if both javax.script from jdk *and* javax.script from bsf-api go into
classhpath?)
bsf 2.x wont do because it is based on a different api.

hope that helps
