One concept to come out of Groovy is the notion of builders. Builders can be described as a consistent and concise syntax for building a tree of objects. They are used for DOM-like API's, Ant tasks, Swing GUI's and more. Earlier in 2008 Vladimir Vivien decided to create a builder for the JMX API which works with Groovy 1.5 and Java 5 or newer.
The current version boasts the following features:
JmxBuilder is still relatively new and is currently at version 0.5. Vladamir anticipates releasing a 1.0 version later in 2009 after adding features such as the ability to query beans, Spring JMX Annotations and monitoring support.
One thing Vladamir pointed out is Groovy already has the GroovyMBean which allows you to query and interact with MBeans today.

The JmxBuilder was too good to be left alone: the Groovy development team decided to team up with Vladimir to get JmxBuilder integrated in the just recently released Groovy 1.6-RC-1.
Great job, Vladimir!
