-- Original-Nachricht -- Von: Larry Lynn via users <[email protected]> Betreff: Re: Possible to share files privately with PDFBox library maintainers? Datum: 14.01.2026, 22:48 Uhr An: [email protected] Cc: Larry Lynn <[email protected]> OK. I've worked with our legal department and with our client, and I've received permission to share the font in an encrypted ZIP directory with a request to delete the font when it's no longer needed for development or troubleshooting. Should I submit a Jira ticket for this issue, our would you prefer if I escalated to the pdfbox-dev mailing list first?
