[jira] [Comment Edited] (PDFBOX-3906) Contributing the JBig2 ImageIO Plugin to PDFBox​

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3906?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16150372#comment-16150372 ]

-------------------------------------------------------------

Please note that there has been one addition since I created the export, namely a license notice file about the sample data pulled from the spec. I will create a new, hopefully final export once all the details have been sorted out. In particular, I see the following questions in need to be answered, ideally by ASF legal, since I don't readily have access to a U.S. copyright lawyer.

* Is is acceptable to have single reference files that do not become part of the distribution under a more restrictive license? This would be https://github.com/levigo/jbig2-imageio/commit/875dd85d8c077c72459ac75a5034cda7a4e3d931
* Can we use the other sample data under a U.S. government document public domain assumption or fair use terms (dithered photo of Callista Flockhart)?
