Hello, I wanted to inform you that the PoDoFo Community joined the PDF Association[1]. This allowed me to release some press news[2][3] for the association audience/members and gave me the opportunity to submit a topic for a presentation[4] that took place during the PDF Days Europe 2025 event this week in Berlin[5]. The presentation is going to be published in the PDF Association YouTube channel later this fall.
I'm sorry if I didn't announce this properly before the event: I talked with Dominik a few months ago but it would have been a good idea also to advertise the event here in the ML, just in case one of you was interested in participating. I don't get easily caught up in a communication frenzy, and this is the first breath I can take after a summer of intense work and preparation for such an event (the presentation featured the XMP packets validation that was recently committed into PoDoFo). Just to inform you and be transparent about: I am personally sustaining the expenses for joining the association for this year and 2026. I hope I will be able to secure proper sponsorship for the next few years (I am already working on this). Also please note: because of "PoDoFo community" membership is still linked to my name, but I will ask to unlink it with the next renewal. In the future I will try to write here earlier if other events related to PoDoFo are going to happen. Unfortunately such seminars like "PDF Days" events organized by the PDF Association are rare: they have "PDF Week" events every six months but they are very technical/formal events that are reserved for PDFA members.
