Can I add some examples to publised Tika site for released version?
Or on-site docs are freezed after appropriate release?
I think the general rule has been:
* If the new information or updates to the site reflects something that
was in a release, and we'd forgotten to put it on the site before
release, update the current version
* If the new information or updates relies on updates/changes done to
the code post-release, copy the current release page into the
directory for the next release, and update in there
So, you'll see we already have http://tika.apache.org/1.8/formats.html
which mentions formats added since 1.7
For an example, I'd say if the example code was in 1.7 just not on the
website by then, feel free to add it to the 1.7 section. However, because
we ship the examples as a separate module, if the example code it depends
on was added after 1.7 was released (so wasn't in the tika-examples-1.7
jar) it might be best to put that in the 1.8 area of the website to avoid
confusions.
That said, if you think it's a trivial example change, I wouldn't object
if you snuck it into the 1.7 docs :)
