Bertrand Delacretaz commented on SLING-7612:
--------------------------------------------
Christian, you're right that your changes make the code cleaner but they don't
bring any functional benefits IMO and Carsten is right about breaking backwards
compatibility.
I suggest that we drop these changes, to avoid breaking backwards compatibility.

> Key: SLING-7612
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-7612
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Commons
> Affects Versions: Commons Mime 2.1.10
> Reporter: Christian Schneider
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: Commons Mime 2.1.12
>
>
> Currently the TikaMimeTypeProvider as well as the MimeTypeWebConsolePlugin
> are registered programmatically. I guess this is done make sure they work
> with the optional package dependencies.
> I recently learned that DS is very good to handle this case. So I propose to
> do both with simple DS component annotations. I will provide a PR.
