Any further comments, objections or additions?


<draft>

Report from the Apache PDFBox committee [Andreas Lehmkühler]

## Description:
  The Apache PDFBox library is an open source Java tool for working with
  PDF documents.

## Issues:
- there are no issues requiring board attention at this time"

## Activity:
- we are planning to release the third and hopefully last RC of PDFBox very soon
- as there are a lot of fixes for the 1.8 branch we are going to release a
bugfix version of the 1.8 branch as well
- joining forces with Tim Allison from Apache TIKA to run some bulk tests
(analyzing ~100k of pdfs using different of versions of PDFBox) is a huge help
in many ways
it is 250K

   - compare 2.0.0 with 1.8.x (benchmarks as well as comparing results)
   - determine regressions
   - observ memory footprint/performance
