There was a discussion regarding these packages and what they should be called. The discussion at hand (as I recall) was that there needed to be a clear differentiation between the JSR77? and JMX packages, which is why the package J2EE Management was created; see JSR77: http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=77 > The other thing is these classes are not part of the spec so should not > be in the spec tree at all. I will be moving these back to core. Are they not an implementation of the spec? From what I recall of the discussions of JSR77, there were untyped interfaces that relied solely on naming conventions in order to work. I recall that some generic implementations were created to satisfy those naming conventions, but as you say, they are not part of the 'official' interface. All this is IIRC, because I wasn't involved with the JSR77 stuff, just dredging up thoughts from the back of my mind.
