I agree with you. However I still don't get the point why relying on JMX is a critical factor, and usage of jakarta-commons* is considered harmful. JMX is a specification and it is up to you to implement it. >> In the end it all boils down to whether a system is JMX enabled or JMX >> based.

And I don't say JMX based is the only solution. But I believe most people here on the list talk about the instrumentation level only. Jens
