I think it would be better if both the module and the package were "java.net.http.client", for two reasons. Firstly, it is important to align the package and module name whenever possible; I don't think there's a compelling reason here (or most anywhere else) not to do so. Secondly, it is not unreasonable to expect that the future may bring other HTTP-related APIs that are not necessarily client-specific. Relatedly, it may be wise to rename "HttpRequest" and "HttpResponse" to "HttpClientRequest" and "HttpClientResponse", respectively. -- - DML
