Jukka Zitting commented on PDFBOX-1187:
---------------------------------------
The idea of moving (at least parts of) JempBox code to the PDFBox jar was to
avoid having to break PDFBox API compatibility even if we otherwise wanted to
drop JempBox. We could achieve this by moving the relevant parts of JempBox
(i.e. the XMPMetadata class and any other code needed to implement the existing
PDFBox API) to inside the PDFBox jar and dropping the rest of JempBox.
Of course, that's conditional on the decision of what to do with JempBox. Let's
discuss that on dev@.
