Was just chatting with Matt Kemp offline...
The commons-attributes noise is being added to Erma classes to expose
them as MBeans. I, personally, disagree with this entirely.
On one hand, I dont' think we should be adding JMX stuff to it at all,
and on the other hand we definitely shouldn't be doing it with
commons-attributes. JMX and commons-attributes are Orbitz specific use
cases in summary.
