   > @danepitkin: In case it's applicable here, I recently noticed 
RoaringBitmap upgraded to JPMS w/o needing to drop support for Java 8, see 
[RoaringBitmap/RoaringBitmap#657](https://github.com/RoaringBitmap/RoaringBitmap/pull/657).
 It looks like it requires dropping support for _building_ with Java 8 (must be 
built with Java 11+) but the result can still be run under Java 8. I'm not 
familiar with a lot of the details so I can't say if this same approach would 
help here but I thought I'd share.
   
   Hi Team, yes, there are some solutions available for implementing JPMS ad 
target/release to JDK8, the main problem is that these solutions will fail if a 
project has Unsafe dependencies. Consider: 
https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/13072#:~:text=Implement%20cross%2Dcompilation,jeps/247
 and 
[JEP-247](https://openjdk.org/jeps/247#:~:text=For%20N%20%3E%3D%209%2C%20the,image%20is%20not%20allowed.).
   
   The PR was moved around to include module-info.java files **to validate only 
JPMS requirements** and ensure that we are prepared to implement them after 
JDK8 deprecation.
