I need to use JMS as a Logstash output and, after looking for some information, I found there is a plugin called logstash-output-jms. However, I found it in GitHub ([https://github.com/logstash-plugins/logstash-output-jms](https://github.com/logstash-plugins/logstash-output-jms)) but not in the documentation ([https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/5.0/output-plugins.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/5.0/output-plugins.html)). Why is that? I am afraid of using it if it won't be supported in the future or if it is an outdated plugin. I saw other posts where people ask for information about this plugin but there were a suggestion to use other plugin instead of more information about it. Could some help me to clarify it? ---

5.X is still in an alpha state and is not supported for production use. However the docs still don't exist for 2.3, which is supported, so I don't know. Let me as the LS team and see what we can find out! ---

Looks like there was an issue with the docs being compiled, we'll sort it out and it should be back up soon! ---

Hello, any news on this? i still cannot find the output-jms on the logstash (all versions) documentations. I need to write to an IBM WebSphere MQ, with no other protocol available than jms, so having a documentation like the other plugins would help, cannot find almost any info elsewhere. Thank you ---
