Mark Kerzner commented on TIKA-623:
-----------------------------------
Hi, everybody,
I have forked Richard Johnson's java-libpst project here on GitHub
https://github.com/markkerzner/JavaLibpst. My reasons for doing this are as
follows:
1. I need java-libpst parsing capabilities for my FreeEed project
https://github.com/markkerzner/FreeEed
2. I want it in Maven, for FreeEed's purposes, and later on I would be happy to
see it included in Tika, which also needs it in Maven;
3. I want it in active development, and Richard told me that he has less time
for it than before.
4. By no means do I want to take the glory or the project away from Richard,
but it is one of the keys for FreeEed's adoption in Windows.
I am in touch with Richard on all that, but I want the community feedback.
Should I continue? Should I bring it into some Maven repository? I have been
working with Carl Byington and know his libpst somewhat, so that additional
qualification should help. Therefore, please, how am I to proceed?
Thank you.

> Hello everyone,
> As you might know, Outlook stores its mails and other stuff in a single PST
> file. There's a relatively new Java library called java-libpst for reading
> Outlook PST files. It is licensed under the LGPL and available over here:
> http://code.google.com/p/java-libpst/
> I have tested the library on Outlook 2000 and Outlook 2003, with good
> results. It would be great if the library could be integrated into Tika.
> Best regards
> Tran Nam Quang
