Hello,

I just wanted to announce that I tagged 1.0.0-beta. The most relevant
news is that I concluded the first pass of API modifications on the
whole API surface that I conducted in the past 2+ years. A second pass
is expected, but it's supposed to be just a quick fly by. In the
intentions, all this work should lead to a reasonably stable API for
1.0.0. If you have any feedback, now is a good time to speak up.

In other news:
- We support predefined CMap (CJK) text extraction[1];
- Added several micro optimizations that should improve both CPU
performance and memory usage. More to come.

Work to be done in the next weeks:
- Try to restore PdfShadingPattern, PdfTilingPattern;
- Optimize few more stuff (see TODO[2]).

The following are not objectives for 1.0.0 release (at least I will
not spend resources my self on these):
- Review the tools: the status of tools is currently indeterminate,
and 1.0.0 will not officially support tools. They will stay in the
repository indefinitely until, soon or later, they will receive some
love;
- Clean the doxygen documentation. For the time 1.0.0 will be out I
will be exhausted already, sorry.

Greetings,
Francesco
