   Still no client changes needed.<<BR>><<BR>>
   I. '''Use XMP instead of Hashmap in Metadata class'''<<BR>><<BR>>
   The idea is to have just one data model which is able to faithfully store 
all metadata information. The XMP data model provides that. The Metadata API 
will be kept as is, just the internal representation of the data will be moved 
to XMP data model. To be able to map from the API to the internal data model, 
the static mapping table that has been introduced in step 2 will be used. (see 
picture 1)<<BR>><<BR>>
-  Any client provided that cannot be mapped to existing namespaces, will be 
stored in a special Tika namespace in XMP.<<BR>>
+  Any client provided data that cannot be mapped to existing namespaces, will 
be stored in a special Tika namespace in XMP.<<BR>>
   Add an access API to the internal XMP object to the Metadata API for clients 
or parsers who want to directly work on the XMP data model. The alternative 
would be to add a complete XMP API to the Metadata class, but it is the 
question whether that is feasible or worth the effort.<<BR>><<BR>>
   The XMP output handler can be declared deprecated.<<BR>><<BR>>
   Still no client has to change.<<BR>><<BR>>
