Hi Otis, Many thanks for your comments, I'm so sorry for this late answer. I will add lius as lucene contrib and I will change the licence to ASL. There are some developper contributing to Lius but there are not very active. For the question : this is a Laval University project, right? But you work at DocuLibre? I have develpped lius during my study at laval university, I still the copy right owner for this projet, so I can change the licence to ASL without any problem. Lius has been used in serveral projet at Laval university and I deceded to hoste it in Laval. I work at Laval and at Doculibre.
Tika is a really good projet and I'm really interested to join it. Regards. On 1/31/07, Otis Gospodnetic <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi Rida, Some comments in no particular order: - Looks useful - This looks like a more expanded version of what Erik and I wrote for LIA, and I know people often ask and use that code, so I know there is a need for a framework that knows how to parse various document formats - Nutch has some of the document parsing code written in form of plugins. A few people wanted to decouple that from Nutch in a Tika project: http://code.google.com/p/tika/ . Not sure what the status is, I think only Jukka Zitting did any work there, but I think the initial idea was never fully funished. If LIUS joins Lucene, I think some of this duplication should be cleaned up, so we have only one framework for parsing various types of document formats. - Going through the Incubator is one way to go. Perhaps another way to get LIUS under Lucene is to just place it under contrib/, say contrib/lius. - Licensing would have to change to ASL and you would probably also have to send in your ASF CLA. - Any dependencies on GPL or LGPL or code released under other licenses would have to either be removed, or you'd have to fetch the required Jars at compile/build time. A few projects under Lucene contrib/ already do that, I believe - Are there developers who are actively working on LIUS? Fixing bugs, adding features, keeping up with new versions of dependencies, etc. Otis P.S. Out of curiosity - this is a Laval University project, right? But you work at DocuLibre? ----- Original Message ---- From: Rida Benjelloun <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: java-user@lucene.apache.org; java-dev@lucene.apache.org Sent: Tuesday, January 30, 2007 7:27:28 PM Subject: Lius into apache incubator Hi, I would like to add Lius framework (http://sourceforge.net/projects/lius/) to apache incubator. Is there some volontiers to do this job and to contribute to the developement of this project. Thanks.
