Lewis John McGibbney commented on TIKA-1599:
--------------------------------------------

Hi [[email protected]] we actually use 
[Neko|http://nekohtml.sourceforge.net/] in Nutch by default! AFAIK we have 
undertaken no comparative testing. The other implementation in Nutch is 
TagSoup. Again however as I said I am not aware of any comparative studies 
which have been completed. 

> Switch from TagSoup to JSoup

>          Components: parser
>    Affects Versions: 1.7, 1.8

> There are several Tika issues related to how TagSoup cleans up HTML 
> ([TIKA-381], [TIKA-985], maybe [TIKA-715]), but TagSoup doesn't seem to be 
> under active development.
> On the other hand I know of several projects that are now using 
> [JSoup|https://github.com/jhy/jsoup], which is an active project (albeit only 
> one main contributor) under the MIT license.
> I haven't looked into how hard it would be to switch this dependency.
