2. It shall be possible for a JAM module to express an import

These goals appear to have changed from the ones we agreed?
I am misreading it or is this document only expressing one side of
the equation?
This document only addresses how to use OSGi bundles in the Java Module
System (i.e. the original goal #1).
The Java Module System already provides reflective API that allows the
OSGi framework to make use of JAM modules (i.e. the original goal #2) if
the framework implementation chooses to provide the support. That said,
defining the semantic and syntax of how an OSGi bundle should import a
JAM module in the OSGi framework is actually outside the scope of 277,
thus it is not covered in this document.
I'm going to be offline very soon. I will follow up the remaining issues
you raised tomorrow.
