Re: Aperture is available under the BSD

Hi Chris, I didn't know Tika mime type detection was based on freedesktop.org. I've also developed a mimeType detection system built on top of freedesktop, leveraging the shared-mime-info database to be accurate. Is this what you guys have done as well? In any case, the point I was trying to m

FWIW, Mahout uses Confluence, and I find the experience a whole lot more pleasurable, but +0 on either choice. On Dec 8, 2008, at 5:03 AM, Jukka Zitting wrote: Hi, On Mon, Dec 8, 2008 at 2:41 AM, Mattmann, Chris A <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Since I didn't see an official Tika wiki yet, I we

Re: Aperture is available under the BSD

I think I would let things shake out a little bit with the change to a new license. IANAL, but I think I would at least wait for a release. It does seem to make sense, though. Personally, though, I really like Tika's SAX model for extraction and the, um, lack of RDF. 2 more cents... G

Re: Extending existing Parsers - No easy to do right now, could we make it easier?

Hi, You're definitely right that there would be a mapping between a given document and XML, via a ContentHandler, which is king of what tika does already. This also means that metadata would be extracted from the "raw" ContentHandler. In any case, as you pointed out Tika might not be the best

Re: Aperture is available under the BSD

This is definitely a good news. Besides very good parsers, Aperture also has strong support for mime type. I know we also have support for detecting mime types but at some point and time we may consider using theirs and focus solely on writing Parsers? One problem though is that parsers return R

Re: Extending existing Parsers - No easy to do right now, could we make it easier?

Hi Jukka, This fix would definitely help me in the short run since I've got to extends the Html parser for my specific needs. However, I'm thinking that I may run in the same problem with another parser in a month or two. Therefore I'm leaning toward finding a solution that would work for all

Aperture is available under the BSD

Hi, The Aperture project (http://aperture.sourceforge.net/) has relicensed all their code to the BSD license, see http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=891966. They probably have some code that we could reuse, and perhaps we also have some valuable bits to contribute to them. The BSD li
