Nick Burch commented on TIKA-3742:
----------------------------------
Sure! Potentially easiest is if you create your own fork of Tika on Github,
create a branch, and work on that. You can then share that branch with us to
review, feedback on etc. When it's all working, you can then create a pull
request for us to merge straight into Tika!

> Hi [~tallison] & Whoever else.
> I managed to compile the C/C++ library [http://dgnlib.maptools.org/] for
> DGN7 which produces an dgndump.exe which will dump all the data from the DGN.
> From my initial testing it looks pretty good.
> Would you guys think it was worth adding this or just keep it as a custom
> parser rather than in the main source code? It's under MIT license. I've
> attached the exe (zipped), a copy of the output from the dump and my very
> dirty testing calling the exe (my code I was only interested in the Strings
> so am only pulling those into a string array at the moment to check it's
> pulling out the correct data).
