+Release Notes -- Apache FontBox -- Version 0.8.0-incubating
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+Apache FontBox is an open source Java library for working with PDF fonts.
+
+This 0.8.0-incubating release is the first FontBox 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.fontbox to
+org.apache.fontbox. If you've used FontBox before, you need to update all
+your client code to use the renamed FontBox packages.
+
+The version number of FontBox 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 (fontbox-0.8.0-incubating-src.jar).
+You can build the release with Apache Ant like this:
+
+    jar xf fontbox-0.8.0-incubating-src.jar
+    cd fontbox-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.
