Yes, I could need some help. Right now I postponed the design
for a GUI because I am focused on implementing the server
stuff.
There are two things right now I would need:
- Design of the JBoss MGT GUI (see below)
- Design of the Look & Feel
When we have enough people we maybe develop a HTML
as well as a Swing client at the same time.

This will only work for the Swing client:
The GUI would start up like JBoss server. Don't confuse
JMX with management (JMX is primarely used for management
puprose but it can also create a dynamic application and
defines also an intra-application communcation). And for the
last two items I want use JMX to create the JBoss MGT GUI.
When you have some ideas feel free to update the JBossMGT
project page or add a special JBossMGT client design page to
it (as I did for the server part).
Thanx - Andy
