Re:JMX Microkernel (Score 1)

FYI, JMX is not a JBoss technology, but rather a Sun JSR Specification. Perhaps the most telling point is that JBoss's name doesn't appear anywhere in the working group [jcp.org] for the JSR. Claiming or attributing responsibility for such technology is a bit disingenuous. Especially since several other app servers (e.g. WebSphere and Sun J2EE) use the same technology.

I don't see how the statement you quoted implies that JBoss was involved in creation of JMX. Being based on JMX implies only one thing: its based on JMX. I think you are reading more into the statement than is actually there.
