---------------------------------------------------------

Perfect. I had created a new one, but your patch seems fine for me right now

> The windows Shares connector needs some improvement in dates and other fields

> Right now the connector is overwriting the tika metadata "creation_date" and 
> "last_modification_Date" for a document. This is happening because at a 
> Windows Shares level you have a creation_date and a last_modification_date 
> (related to the creation of the document in the windows shares filesystem) 
> that are different from the creation_date and the last_modification_date 
> associated to the original file.
> There is the need to change the metadata name to distinguish between this 2 
> layers of dates and guaranteeing flexibility to the user to use the one that 
> he/she wants with a proper mapping.
> A plus can be to format the date in the lucene standard, to be aligned with a 
> proper standard.
> - Url metadata :
> Can be useful to extract the Url and store it in a specific metadata ( 
> further than the ID of the document). In this way we can keep it as Id but 
> also use it with other mappings without affecting the Id field.
> - Parent Directory path :
> Can be useful to extract the Path for the directory that contains the current 
> file. Evaluate well this as can be a redundancy or an improvement.
