Not quite. It's important to get the terminology right.
A Projects has a Project Lead, who is an individual which may or may
not work for a given company. The Project Lead is responsible for
"directing and coordinating the Project’s activities" [0].
When a Project is created, or when its Project Lead resigns or
departs, candidates for a new Project Lead may be nominated by the
Group Leads of a Project’s Sponsoring Groups. In the case of this
Project, the sponsoring Group is the Build Group, and its Group lead
is of course an individual.
The Project Lead for the JDK 6 Project is Andrew Haley.
