Hi @ddekany I asked in #maven on ASF slack. The general consensus is: 1. derived module name derived from file name is unstable. Gradle users might not get the same result, so this is not a reason to name the module "freemarker" 2. package is not linked. 3. The software name is "Apache Freemarker", this should be reflected in modules and packages if possible. It is not for the package, so do it for the module. 4. The module name should be reverse DNS And most important: 5. The adoption rate is probably exactly 0%. There is not reason not to do a breaking change. If you like, we can ask on the users list. But JPMS projects are rare. 6. Even then, it is super easy to switch and very straight-forward. Given some Apache Maven Members agree on `org.apache.freemarker`, I highly recommend the switch. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
