MySQL Connector/MXJ 1.0.6-beta is available for download.

MySQL Connector/MXJ is a JMX MBean for deploying and managing a MySQL
database. This makes it easy for Java developers to deploy applications
which require a database by reducing installation barriers for their
end-users. 

Connector/MXJ requires a JMX v1.2 compliant MBean container, such as
JBoss version 4. As a JMX MBean, Connector/MXJ makes the MySQL database
appear to be a java-based component. It does this by determining what
platform the system is running on, selecting the appropriate binary, and
launching the executable. It will also optionally deploy an initial
database, and via standard JMX management APIs present (and allow the
setting of) parameters which are appropriate for that platform. 

Included are instructions for deploying to JBoss. 

Please, be sure to read the "README" and the "GettingStarted.txt" files.
