> The Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) [0] data model is intended to describe
> building and construction industry data. For the sake of argument, it can be
> considered as a more intelligent successor to the .dwg data models used
> within CAD models.
> I've tracked down a potential 3rd party library [1] which we maybe able to
> wrap and use within Tika however the provided software packages are licensed
> under: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/de/ so I am currently
> over on legal-discuss@ in an attempt to see if it is possible to wrap some
> code and contribute it to tika-parsers.
> When I get feedback from legal-discuss, and if this is a go-ahead, I'll need
> to help the developers package the code as a Maven artifact(s), then I will
> progress with writing the implementation.
