Steve,

What's the purpose of having a dedicated "JarFile.runtimeVersioned"? Based on
its only usages at ln#356 and #381, it appears, shouldn't getVersion() simply
returns Release.valueOf(version)?

I'm still wondering about the phrase "root entry" as it continues to give the impression (to me anyway) that it's a resource 
in the root directory. I think "root" works in the JEP because it deals with simple resources like A.class and B.class that 
are in the root directory but it's confusing when there resources with a slash in the name. Add to this is the 
META-INF/versions/<n>  directories which are roots for the version specific resources. I think part of     the confusion is that 
the first mention of "root entry" is in the second paragraph where it has "overrides the unversioned root entry" 
without defining what it means. In summary, I'm wondering whether you would be up for change the terminology so that "root 
entry" isn't in the javadoc?
I’ve released a new webrev,

  that addresses the above issue.
