My name is Rida Benjelloun and I'm currently working at the Laval University (Québec, Canada) as Head of Digital Initiatives Research and Development Office. I've just release an indexing framework based on Lucene witch is named LIUS.
LIUS is written in Java and it adds to Lucene many files format indexing functionalities as: Ms Word, Ms Excel, Ms PowerPoint, RTF, PDF, XML, HTML, TXT, Open Office suite and JavaBeans. All the indexation process is based on a configuration file.
You can visit this links for more informations about LIUS, documentation is available in English and French:
<http://www.bibl.ulaval.ca/lius/index.en.html>www.bibl.ulaval.ca/lius/index.en.html
www.sourceforge.net/projects/lius
The package available on SourceForge.net contains examples and documentation.
I was wondering if you will be interested to add LIUS as a contribution of Lucene
(<http://jakarta.apache.org/lucene/docs/contributions.html>http://jakarta.apache.org/lucene/docs/contributions.html) in the "Miscellaneous" category ?
Don't hesitate to write or call me for any questions ;
Regards,
