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.
Well done, most of it is already looking quite good. Just some minor things
The following files don't have a license header:
pom.xml
release-notes.md
src/main/resources/META-INF/services/org.apache.pdfbox.jbig2.util.cache.CacheBridge
src/main/resources/META-INF/services/org.apache.pdfbox.jbig2.util.log.LoggerBridge
src/main/resources/META-INF/services/javax.imageio.spi.ImageReaderSpi
src/test/resources/META-INF/services/org.apache.pdfbox.jbig2.util.TestService
README.md
.travis.yml
What about the binary test files in src/test/resources/? I assume their license
is cleared as well, isn't it?
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).
If the plugin becomes a part of PDFBox the source as to be hosted on an ASF
related server. As the PDFBox sources reside in a svn repository the new plugin
will be added to that repository as well.
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
Shouldn't be a problem. I'm planning to prepare a vote which will include a
resolution to make the current maintainera a committer.
That's it for now, any help on how the next steps could look like would be
greatly appreciated.
I'm going to start the IP-clearance process, more details to come.
Please provide the following paperwork:
- software-grant, see [1]
- an iCLA for all potential committers, which aren't apache committers yet, see
[2]
- a CCLA if necessary, see [3]

Please create a JIRA ticket about adding your jbig2 plugin to PDFBox and attach
a source tarball/zip and a SHA checksum to it, see PDFBOX-1056 which dealt with
the integration of the PDF/A-validator some years ago.
Thanks
Jörg Henne
We have to thank you and everybody who is involved on your side!
