New Project Proposal: JMX2

[Eamonn McManus]

In accordance with the OpenJDK guidelines for projects [1], I hereby propose the OpenJDK Project "JMX2".

The Reference Implementation of the JMX API is part of the OpenJDK implementation.  This Project 
will update it to version 2.0 of the API, which is being defined by JSR 255 [2].

Previously the implementation of the JMX API 2.0 was part of JDK 7 but it was withdrawn as explained 
in [3].  This Project will produce an extended OpenJDK implementation that includes the JMX API 2.0 
once again.

I propose that this project be sponsored by the JMX Group [4] and that I be the initial moderator of 
the Project.
