Did javax.annotation.Generated get removed?

Hi,
I'm testing Ceylon on Java 9 preview and besides the boot classpath
removal with jimage files, I'm progressing in making it work. But I'm
looking for the javax.annotation.Generated annotation, and I can't seem
to find it. It was originally slated to end up in the javax.annotation
module back when Jigsaw was targetted at Java 7, but now I can't find it
in the lib .jimages. Did it get removed? Or is it hiding somewhere else?
For the curious, Ceylon depends on a fork of Java 7 javac, which it
includes. Adapting it to use the NIO FileSystem for jimage was
relatively easy, and there's javac 9's code I can use to back port too.
Other question: on https://jdk9.java.net/ I see "JDK9 Early Access Now
Available!" and "JDK 9 Early Access with Project Jigsaw", both of these
seem to differ. It's not very clear to me how, since the first does use
".jimage" files already. Is the second ("with Project Jigsaw") about the
addition of user modules, or are they really the same thing?
Thanks, cheers.
