Thanks!

I started with the FontBox build, that is now (as of revision 818793)
entirely Maven-based. To try out the build, use:

    svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/pdfbox/fontbox/trunk
fontbox-trunk
    cd fontbox-trunk
    mvn clean install

This will produce a target directory with the fontbox-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar in it.

If you have IKVM.NET installed, you can run the build as follows to
also produce a fontbox-1.0-SNAPSHOT.dll:

    mvn clean install -Dikvm=/path/to/ikvm

All IDE and other Maven tool integrations should work out of the box.

Please try the new build out and report any problems you encounter. If
everything works fine, I'll proceed to JempBox and finally to PDFBox.

PS. I set the build version to "1.0-SNAPSHOT" on the premise that we
may want to go for a 1.0 release once we're graduated from the
Incubator. Alternatively we could use "0.8.1-SNAPSHOT" to stick with a
more rigid major.minor.patch version numbering.

BR,

Jukka Zitting
