That idea already came up from time to time and it didn't work for different
reasons.

So, to participate we need a mentor and or course at least one good idea to pe
proposed.

I won't act as mentor for different reasons but I'll try to help in the normal
manner.

IMO an appropriate idea shall not deal with pdf-specific low-level features,
like linearization support, as I doubt that any possible student is familiar
with the pdf-spec.

So possible ideas could be:

- an idea which came up some years ago, was to implement a gui-interface to
bundle some/all/future tools/features of pdfbox, like printing, rendering,
preflight, split, merge etc.
- a high-level api to create pdfs
- an advanced text extractor with table/column support
