Note that javax.management  is now part of the 1.5 API:

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/javax/management/package-summary.html

so, even if it is started as a classpathx project (ala JAXP and the
security packages), we may want to merge it at a later date.  Currently,
GNU Classpath HEAD has 65.94% binary compatibility with JDK 1.5, and
javax.management and java.lang.management are two of 60 missing packages
(including the CORBA and other stuff missing at the 1.4 stage). 
Hopefully, the percentage with the generics branch will be even higher.
