Hi, With the 0.8.0 release about to become official in a few days, it's time for us to focus on getting PDFBox graduated [1] from the Apache Incubator.
I think PDFBox is in a pretty good shape to graduate into an Apache top level project (TLP). We have enough active committers and the incoming patch queue in Jira looks great. All the licensing issues have been resolved. So, let's start preparing for the graduation. I'd like to switch my mentor role to a normal committer and PMC member in the PDFBox TLP, as I've already become quite familiar with the codebase and I have a number of itches to scratch. How about the other mentors, do you want to remain as PMC members and/or committers after PDFBox has graduated? We'll also need a chairman [2] for the PDFBox TLP. Andreas, are you interested?
