[cdi-dev] Duplicate javax.annotation packages and Java 9

[Antoine Sabot-Durand]

I encountered the same type of collision with
java.transaction.InvalidTransactionException which is in the JDK and in
JTA. I remember sending this problem to jigsaw ML [1], but obviously they
didn't have time to do something or expect having Java EE spec do the
required stuff :-(.
Now that JDK9 is out, if we want EE4J 9 (or whatever it's version will be)
to support jigsaw, we'll probably have to change packages names :-(.
