Tim Allison commented on TIKA-1731:
-----------------------------------
Great. Thank you so much! It would be helpful to keep this discussion in the
open via the issue I opened [here|https://github.com/ddoleye/java-hwp/issues/2].
If ddoleye is willing to offer ongoing support for java-hwp, then we can move
ahead with the following. The lack of response to
[this|https://github.com/ddoleye/java-hwp/issues/2] and
[this|https://github.com/ddoleye/java-hwp/issues/3] has not been
encouraging...I know, we're all busy, though.
[~gagravarr] and [~chrismattmann], let me know if I'm missing any steps.
#. The owner of the software can submit a [license
grant|https://www.apache.org/licenses/software-grant.txt] to
[email protected] and cc [email protected]. If ddoleye wrote the software
on his own time, then he owns it. If he was working for a company while
writing the software, then the company needs to sign the software grant.
#. ddoleye then changes all headers and other license information in the source
code to [ASL 2.0|http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.txt].
#. ddoleye then pushes his code to maven central. See Nick's links
[here|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1513?focusedCommentId=14278678&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-14278678]
#. We at Tika wrap the parsers. We'll need help with test docs and unit tests.
We may also have some push requests to java-hwp to make the integration easier
on our end.
Wait, [~chrismattmann], do we need a software grant if we aren't taking over
the code...just importing from Maven? Would a change of headers be sufficient
_if_ ddoleye is the sole contributor and a company doesn't _own_ the software?
We'll need help with ongoing maintenance and test docs.
> Try to integrate java-hwp into Tika

> Key: TIKA-1731
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1731
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Tim Allison
> Priority: Minor
>
> Now that we have detection working for hwp files, it would be great to add a
> parser.
> [java-hwp|https://github.com/ddoleye/java-hwp] looks like a promising
> candidate. We'd need to ask ddoleye about a potential change in license and
> then interest in maintenance + pushing to maven.
> Any other candidates?
