Hi all,

after quite some time of waiting for contributor's feedback on the license 
change, being busy with other work and holidays :-) I have completed the 
preparations for a migration of the JBig2 ImageIO plugin under the ASF/PDFBox 
umbrella. The steps completed so far are:

- ?IP vetting for contributions by non-levigo developers
- Merging/application of all pending pull requests
- Update of the project structure in anticipation of the new home:
-- package names
-- license headers
-- license files
-- README.md
-- release notes
-- Maven project information

The preparations for the transition have been made directly on the component's 
master branch at https://github.com/levigo/jbig2-imageio. It would be great if 
someone from PDFBox could review the current state of affairs and advise about 
any kinks, missing stuff etc.

In a previous message I mentioned the question of how we (levigo) can continue 
to contribute to or maintain the software once the migration has been 
completed. One option would certainly be to use GitHub with our (levigo's) 
repository becoming a downstream clone. Another option would be that the 
relevant developers become ASF committers. I myself are already one (ASF SVN id 
hennejg). The other candidates are:

- Matthäus Mayer ([email protected]): initial lead developer of the component
- Sebastian Holder ([email protected]): current maintainer
- Carolin Köhler: ([email protected]): current maintainer

That's it for now, any help on how the next steps could look like would be 
greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Jörg Henne
