If the community is to succeed in migrating to java modules then the basic dependencies such as javax.inject or jakarta.inject should at least reserve their automatic module name.

See http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/jigsaw-dev/2017-October/013233.html for a discussion on what that name could be. Suggested: 'java.inject'

A new release on maven central of jakarta.inject 1.0 should become available.
