javax.inject module?

[Lance Andersen]

You can grab the jar from maven central https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/javax.inject/javax.inject/1

The JSR  can be found here https://jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=330.

I am hoping to try and get the JSR 330 spec leads to support updating the implementation jar with an automatic module name if at all possible. The proposed module name is java.inject
