“Plans for version 8 of Java Platform Standard Edition, which is
due next year, call for inclusion of Project Jigsaw to add modular
capabilities to Java. But some organizations are concerned with how
Oracle’s plans might conflict with the OSGi module system already

security hindrance. (Oracle declined to discuss these issues with
InfoWorld.)”
