Brian,

Does any body has a justification to include all of them.

ASM has core and couple of interfaces around it. Subset included now to jaxp workspace is enough to do all necessary things.

The main ASM distribution is broken into 5 jars, based on how people tend to use it; this is probably a good starting candidate for module boundaries.

Okay two questions :) : do you know when this will get modularized and show up in the jigsaw repositories?

FWIW. We have been sync'ing up jigsaw forest with jdk8 periodically and hope to do it in a regular basis. It's currently sync'ed with jdk8-b23. When asm shows up in jdk8 promoted build, I hope to pull it down and do the merge in the following week or two depending on how it'll be modularized and their dependencies. Mandy
