Pedro F. Giffuni c937a4ccc9 rename most cases of jakarta- to apache-
The Apache Softare Foundation used to maintain an umbrella project named
Jakarta but it was retired on 2011. This name now conflicts with the new
name for Java EE under the Eclipse Foundation.

Rename most of the packages to be more consistent. Some other packages remain
but they will require intervention by their corresponding maintainers.

java Management Extensions (JMX) is an API that facilitates building management
applications that can configure, and perform operations on, a server applica
-tion. In general, each manageable component of the server application is re
-presented by a Management Bean (or MBean, for short). JMX defines three types
of MBeans, of which Model MBeans are the most flexible. Model MBeans provide a
way to define MBeans for many different components, without having to write a
specific MBean implementation class for each one.
However, this power comes at a price. It is necessary to set up a substantial
amount of metadata about each MBean, including the attributes it should expose
(similar to JavaBeans properties), the operations it should make available (si
-milar to calling methods of a Java object via reflection), and other related
information. The Modeler component is designed to make this process fairly pain
-less -- the required metadata is configured from an XML description of each
Model MBean to be supported. In addition, Modeler provides a factory mechanism
to create the actual Model MBean instances themselves.
