David Smiley commented on SOLR-13973:
-------------------------------------
Jan read my mind exactly. And once we have plugins we might be able to get
download stats to make informed decisions.
> Deprecate Tika and Velocity
> ---------------------------
>
> Key: SOLR-13973
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-13973
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Security Level: Public(Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
> Reporter: Ishan Chattopadhyaya
> Priority: Major
>
> Solr's primary responsibility should be to focus on search and scalability.
> Having to deal with the problems (CVEs) of Velocity, Tika etc. can slow us
> down. I propose that we deprecate it going forward.
> Tika can be run outside Solr, and no one needs to run velocity (if they do,
> they can consume JSON and do whatever transformations they need to do). Going
> forward, if someone wants to use these, it should be possible to bring them
> into third party packages and installed via package manager.
> Plan is to just to throw warnings in logs and add deprecation notes in
> reference guide for now. Removal can be done later (9x or 10x).
