No. The new Client group is the long-planned consolidation of
2D/AWT/Swing (with Sound thrown in for good measure), mainly to get rid
of the multiple mailing lists with frequent cross-posting. Phil can add
more if he want to.

The Governing Board has voted to approve the creation of the Client
Libraries Group, with Phil Race as the initial Lead, and to approve
the dissolution of the AWT, 2D, Swing, and Sound Groups [1][2][3].
The new Group will sponsor the OpenJFX and Lanai Projects. The
Harfbuzz, Framebuffer Toolkit, and XRender Pipeline Projects are
dissolved by virtue of losing their sponsoring Groups.
Yes: 5
No: 0
Abstain: 0
According to the Bylaws definition of Two-Thirds Majority, this is
sufficient to approve the new Group and its initial Lead.
(Only a Simple Majority is required to approve the creation of the
new Group, but a Two-Thirds Majority is required to dissolve the
old Groups [4].)
