Panos, To my knowledge, no such document exists.
Such a document serves as a contract, or at least a portion of a contract, between a purchaser of commercial software and the provider of that commercial software. In commercial software development, as well as development for in-house "customers", such a document is extremely important. An open-source library such as PDFBox has a broad range of "customers" who would have a broad range of requirements. And it has a development community that provides the best software it can ... but entirely without warranty of usability for any specific purpose. Basically, no contract exists to meet any particular set of requirements. In my opinion, and I welcome dissent, a Requirements Specification Document is not suitable for PDFBox simply because of the kind of project it is. It could certainly be undertaken as an academic effort, but I would find its real-world usefulness suspect. Thanks.
