A tough decision and yes a little disappointing, especially since it
would be very useful to have the JDK itself split up. However, given
the extra engineering and community effort to have jigsaw fully
supported by tools and containers, I think it was the right call, and
at least they let us know over a year out.
Really, I don't know. As Jan said, the impact on the desktop side, for non
industrial projects, is relevant. JavaFX 2 will stay mostly confined to
the range of industrial apps. It's true that this final of the story has
been already written in the past two years, but there could be still room
for doing something.
Given that, what's now really the meaning of jigsaw? Not useful on the
server side, and I can say that industrial apps aren't affected by
20-30-40 MB more or less.
