The State of the Module System: Automatic Edition

[mark.reinhold at oracle.com]

I've posted an update to the State of the Module System document [1].

The main change in this edition is the introduction of material on
compatibility and migration, including automatic modules [2].  This
update also revises the description of reflective readability [3],
reorders the text to improve the flow of the narrative, and is
organized into a two-level hierarchy of sections and subsections
for easier navigation.

Comments and discussion are welcome here on jigsaw-dev but, as usual,
the best way to ensure that the EG sees any specific comment is to
send it to the EG's "suggestion box" list, jpms-spec-comments [4].
