Depending on what you are trying to do, you might get some way with 2.4.x on JDKs above 8 but 2.5 and 3 alphas have improvements and fixes in some areas. You might still get certain currently benign warnings even with those versions.
Re packaging, please read the info in the release notes about repackaging due to JDK9+ modules: http://groovy-lang.org/releasenotes/groovy-2.5.html TL;DR: There is no longer a "fat" all jar just a "fat" all pom.
