hi jukka, you wrote in a recent post:
We also need to work on growing the community and figuring out how to
best interact with
external parser projects.
i am currently also doing meta data extraction from various file formats and got also attracted by the introduction of the tika project. i found a very interesting image meta data extractor library which is shipped under apache license but the project itself is not hosted at apache (see http://www.fightingquaker.com/sanselan/). would it make sense to ask the project owner(s) of such projects to move to the apache project, to also make sure that such useful libs will be maintained and development will continue?
regards, philipp ps: don't know if this is the right place for such questions....
