Hi all,

We are starting to get JPMS related bug reports. Resolving the issues is
technically simple but depends on us deciding on the names to use for
the various modules.

The names we choose for our own modules are easy. Generally we are using
the same or derivation from the OSGi module name.

The names we use for the spec API modules are a little more tricky. We
need to (try and) remain aligned with the RI spec JARs.

It looks like Jakarta EE 9 onwards is going to have consistent naming
(at least it does for the modules we use). Java EE 8 / Jakarta EE 8 is a
bit more inconsistent.

I have put together a wiki page that documents the current position and
the naming I propose we use in Tomcat.

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/TOMCAT/JPMS+names

Comments (in this thread ideally) welcome.

Once we (appear to) have consensus I'll update the builds to use the new
names and start fixing the associated bugs.

Mark
