New PDFBox 3.0.0 release
Hi,
looks like it is time for another 3.0.0 release of PDFBox. Depending on the
outcome of the next regression test I'd like to cut the next 3.0.0 release.
Should we target another alpha or maybe the first beta?
Or are is it time for a stable 3.0.0 PDFBox release already?
WDYT?
Do you have some TODOs on your lists which have to be solved first?
I'm going to resolve my remaining 3.0.0 tickets soon
Andreas

I'd go for a stable release dependent on the results of the regression
tests.

I’ve got two issues which should IMHO be looked at before considering a non-alpha release:
- PDFBOX-5362: Please look at this patch. Finalizers are deprecated for removal.
- PDFBOX-5149: I had to make an ugly InternalDeprecatedCOSCloner class in the org.apache.pdfbox.multipdf package to access the PDFCloneUtility (See https://github.com/rototor/pdfbox-graphics2d/blob/pdfbox-3.0.0/graphics2d/src/main/java/org/apache/pdfbox/multipdf/InternalDeprecatedCOSCloner.java <https://github.com/rototor/pdfbox-graphics2d/blob/pdfbox-3.0.0/graphics2d/src/main/java/org/apache/pdfbox/multipdf/InternalDeprecatedCOSCloner.java>). This is ugly as hell and also will not work as soon as someone plans to use PDFBox with JDK9+ modules. And no, I don’t want to copy and maintain the PDFCloneUtility code. Maybe exporting this functionality under another name with an explicit „Don’t use if you don’t know exactly what you are doing, and don’t ask about it“ remark?

I'm ok with that.

That will hopefully give us some valuable feedback, thanks in advance

No, I would suggest at least releasing a beta first. The beta should already have some kind of API stability guarantee.
I would then port my commercial projects to this beta, and see what breaks.
