Tim Allison updated TIKA-4917:
------------------------------
Description:
We have a custom DateUtils in tika-core. Then we also are bringing in a PDFBox
dependency for our xmp-commons module.
The date parser in PDFBox is really good, and I don't want to lose it.
We can either see if the PDFBox project would be willing to move it to its own
module or perhaps put it in pdfbox-io or we can copy+paste into tika-core and
replace our DateUtils logic.
I propose the latter to start. This would be a 4.2.x change. It wouldn't go
into 4.1.x.
As part of work on this ticket, unless we do this earlier, we'll bump the next
release version to 4.2.0-SNAPSHOT.
