Would it be feasible to remove the jolokia/prometheus libs to thin the
artifact, and just leave the code? And then to use those *unsupported*
endpoints add in some documented libs? A fork is possible but if it
withers and gets out of date it will just be baggage.
The fork would just be to resurrect the code if we want to.
Another thought is to fork a version that only does jolokia and
prometheus, and then that swarm agent would be really light.
That could be a reason to resurrect the code but at the moment we want to
make an attempt to build a GoLang agent for Prometheus(and Jolokia?)
endpoints instead (in particular for Docker/Kubernetes/OpenShift).
Now if someone is really depending on our Java agent reading from
Prometheus, that could be a solution worth maintaining.
