find attached a quick draft of the board report we're expected to submit
this
month (tomorrow, sorry for my lateness).
Any comments, objections or additions?
looks good to me. Some mention about the preflight module which will be
integrated in the next major release?
Kind regards,
Timo

documents.
General Comments
----------------
There are no issues that require Board attention.
Community
---------
There is a steady stream of contributions and bug reports from the
community.
Wolfgang Glas offered to contribute some code to improve the unicode
support
when creating documents, one of the most asked features.
The new conforming parser works well and will replace the old one at least
in the next major release.
Releases
--------
PDFBox 1.7.0 was released on 29 May 2012
We are planning to cut a 1.7.1 bugfix release in the near future.
Development:
------------
The development on the next release is still in progress. We are currently
working on
- improved font handling
- improved rendering
- refactoring + improved integration of preflight
- bugfixing
We just started a discussion on how to proceed with the next release(s), it
looks like the next release will probably be a major one.
