Rex,

I would love for you to contribute these MBeans to Apache Aries. I
would suggest putting them as a sub-project of the jmx project.

I haven't had a chance to look at the latest MBeans, but irrespective
of what I may think of the design I think Aries is the appropriate
place to host the Mbeans.

I'm not sure 100% of the right way to contribute, but the standard
approach seems to be to attach the files to a JIRA. Since it is in
SVN, perhaps someone with the right access can do an svn move (not
sure how possible this is), so we don't loose any of the history.

Thoughts
Alasdair
