Openpdf: Discussion: detatch OpenPdf from the fork network

Created on 29 Nov 2020 · 5Comments · Source: LibrePDF/OpenPDF

Hi there,

I'd like to have OpenPDF as a parent project in GitHub, so we can promote it better. Although it is a fork of other projects, like @rtfarte / OpenPDF, @kulatamicuda /iText-4.2.0 and @daviddurand / iText-4.2.0.

The main advantage would be, that the project will receive a "community" entry in insights. I have started little issue in the GitHub Support community, and this is the suggested solution.

As this is not "my" project, here the question if this is good or bad idea.

I think we could get more contributors if this step is taken.

Please contribute to this discussion.

Probably other people interested in this question: @bengolder

I think OpenPDF can be considered separate project, meaning not a fork in terms of Github projects. However, having documentation links to the projects from which OpenPDF originates would be great - at least for history

As I'm sure everyone knows, I haven't been very active at all in quite some time. I'm all for getting additional contributors to the project and watching it grow, though. Whatever I can do to help with that, I'm all for it. Please let me know what I need to do to get this to happen.
