Release looks good except the standalone jar is missing the release
notes and readme file. Incubator releases require the disclaimer
contained in the readme..

> Release Notes -- Apache PDFBox -- Version 0.8.0-incubating
>
> Introduction
> ------------
>
> Apache PDFBox is an open source Java library for working with PDF documents.
>
> This 0.8.0-incubating release is the first PDFBox release made at the
> Apache Software Foundation. The most notable change since the previous
> release (0.7.3) is the renaming of all Java packages from org.pdfbox to
> org.apache.pdfbox. If you've used PDFBox before, you need to update all
> your client code to use the renamed PDFBox packages.
>
> The -incubating label included in the version number reflects the incubation
> status of the project. See the disclaimer below for more about incubation.
>
> See the Apache PDFBox website at http://incubator.apache.org/pdfbox/ for
> more information.
>
> Release Contents
> ----------------
>
> This release consists of a source archive (pdfbox-0.8.0-incubating-src.jar).
> You can build the release with Apache Ant like this:
>
> jar xf pdfbox-0.8.0-incubating-src.jar
> cd pdfbox-0.8.0-incubating
> ant
>
> The source archive is accompanied by SHA1 and MD5 checksums and a PGP
> signature that you can use to verify the authenticity of your download.
> The public key used for the PGP signature can be found at
