Release Notes -- Apache JempBox -- Version 0.8.0-incubating Introduction ------------ Apache JempBox is an open source Java library for working with XMP metadata. This 0.8.0-incubating release is the first JempBox release made at the Apache Software Foundation. The most notable change since the previous release (0.2.0) is the renaming of all Java packages from org.jempbox to org.apache.jempbox. If you've used JempBox before, you need to update all your client code to use the renamed JempBox packages. The version number of JempBox was upgraded from 0.2.0 to 0.8.0 to better match the version numbering of Apache PDFBox. 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 (jempbox-0.8.0-incubating-src.jar). You can build the release with Apache Ant like this: jar xf jempbox-0.8.0-incubating-src.jar cd jempbox-0.8.0 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 https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/pdfbox/KEYS. Disclaimer ---------- Apache PDFBox is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator PMC. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF. See http://incubator.apache.org/projects/pdfbox.html for the current incubation status of the Apache PDFBox project.
