[Hawkular-dev] Hawkular-Archive - New Org

[John Mazzitelli]

I +1 on the extra repo to remove the crap we all know we'll never want to look at again.

wildfly-monitor is one such thing that I just want to delete - but if I can't just outright delete it, then move it out of hawkular repo because its useless and will never be used again.
