I opened the second link for the funny title, and its a worthy read.
>Jigsaw has had a multi-year development and feedback period in which the views of other module system creators have been led to substantial design changes again and again. Feedback has been taken from anyone who turned up, even Java nobodies like myself. So given how often Red Hat’s feedback has affected the design of Jigsaw, it seems both petty and wrong to describe it as “cleanroom”, implying it was developed in isolation from the outside world.
>I think we have to cut the Oracle team some slack. They’re attempting to build a module system for the masses, which may entail not supporting out of the box every possible use case that has been put into OSGi or JBoss Modules over the years.
