What are good sources for current developments in the "PDF" scene?

I need to keep in touch with current developments in the PDF ecosystem. This accounts to

Background is serverside PDF processing (in Java), especially preflighting, normalizing and modifying user-generated (i.e. arbitrary) PDF documents.

Some sources I have found so far:

Apart from that, googling only brought up horribly outdated sites that I would not trust to keep me updated about what's going on at the bleeding edge.

What am I missing?

To sum up the answers I got so far, I made a condensed list:

Blogs

(all of the above are hosted on adobe.com meaning that they might be biased)

Aggregator sites

Vendor sites

Planet PDF is pretty good. If you require information on PDF/A I would recommend visiting PDF/A Competence Center.

Also, you may want to follow our blog http://bfo.com/blog/ or Twitter page.

Planetpdf is a good place for news and has just done a major revamp (http://www.planetpdf.com/). It also has a forum for asking PDF questions.

Acrobat X has only just come out so there is lots of developments in the PDF world.

Various actively developed Java tools (ie IText, Icepdf, JPedal, PdfBox) have pretty active sites with blogs, forums and regular new releases. Manning has just issued a new version of 'IText in Action'

Adobe also has lots of content on its sites.

I expect Adobe's PDF SDK is the good place to start. It does require you filling out a form though.
