Oh, ok, so it isn't necessarily set in stone.
IMHO, no, we are always open for proposals :-)

What do other PDFBox devs think?  Is there interest in modifying XmpBox to be 
more lenient?  Not for 2.0.0, obviously... :)
We should try to improve XmpBox as long as it is reasonable. XmpBox should not be limited to PDF/A. But we need proper documentation for the missing namespaces.

Got it.  Thank you.  I wanted to confirm that nothing had changed since last 
summer (PDFBOX-2855).

Are you taking bug reports for jempbox or is that entirely eol'd?

Yes, I recently fixed a bug there.

Any recommendations for a somewhat lenient, Apache license-compatible XMP 
parser?

Sorry, don't know.

Might it make sense to include in the README or in the package
javadocs something about the goals for XmpBox?  It is entirely
possible that I missed the warning. ;)

The comment I made is just my personal opinion. It's your comment that made me 
realize that with XMPBox, we can't parse some files that are not PDF/A 
compatible but are correct XMP files. I don't have an idea what to do. Maybe 
improve XMPBox as you suggested (I did have a look but it doesn't seem easy). 
Maybe resurrect Jempbox, or use the 1.8 version.

Thank you, again.

          Best,

                    Tim

I think the problem is that XmpBox was written for PDF/A checking, so it fails 
with XMPs that are not PDF/A. For example, file 000142.pdf has the schema 
http://ns.adobe.com/pdfx/1.3/ which is not allowed for PDF/A:
http://www.pdfa.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/tn0008_predefined_xmp_p
roperties_in_pdfa-1_2008-03-20.pdf

And no, there are no plans for anything on XMP at this time...

All,



     When we migrate to PDFBox 2.x  over on Tika, I'd much prefer to switch 
from our current reliance on jempbox to XMPBox.  I recently extracted ~70k XMPs 
from PDFs with PDFBox 2.0.0-SNAPSHOT, and when I ran XMPBox's parser, there 
were exceptions on roughly 40% of the XMPs.



     I’m including a table below of the counts of exception messages.  Are 
there any plans to make XMPBox more lenient or is this what we can expect going 
forward?



     As always, I’m more than happy to help with files and tests.  Let me know 
what I can do.



                Cheers,



                         Tim
