We hope to have EA builds soon but it will likely be just the 
jdk-module-image in a tar ball initially. In time we would like to make 
the jre-base-image available with it pre-configured to download from a 
repository that contains the jmod packages. That way it will be possible 
to start with a minimal image and only install the JRE/JDK modules that 
you need. In time then the installer that Oracle's preview builds for 
7u4 use will be forward-ported to 8 and be updated to work with a module 
image but I don't know exactly when that will be.

-Alan.
