We have to deliver the report until next wednesday. If the release is ready
until then I'll add a note about 1.8.1 too
This is the first official release of our new modules Preflight and Xmpbox.
New modules:

Xmpbox to handle XMP metadata in PDF files

Development:
------------
Unfortunately the 1.8.0 introduces an issue when saving pdfs. We are already
working on a bugfix release, which will be available soon.
Maybe mention 1.8.1 as this should be out by then?

We decided to use the Apache CMS for our website. Maruan is working on the
transition.
Next major development cycles:
- enhance testing
- modularization
- parser enhancements
