what about setting up some kind of ideas page for PDFBOX 2.0 where we could put together potential improvements e.g. new parser (if still needed), layered lib (core, apps) …. We could also move parts into a sandbox to work on it but to keep it separate from working code. I will have some time again to work on core parts.
