Show HN: I am building a new Python library to read/write PDF files
Merely for your consideration, if those were actual issues on that repo, (a) it would allow adding labels to them (as in https://github.com/pdf-association/pdf-issues/issues?q=is%3A... ) (b) folks could comment, acting as a low-rent stackoverflow, and (c) it would allow anyone to contribute new ones versus the "PR against README.md" situation right now
That also more closely matches the mental model of those items: bugs against the specification, whether the official PDF Association agrees that they are or not
