I've mentioned Tika to a few colleagues lately, and one thing that comes up often is that there are many document/format parsing libraries around, which should ideally be usable as Tika plugins with as little changes as possible. But these libraries' dependencies are all around the place, and probably conflicting in many cases. It might be good to take that into account in the design of Tika, and use solid classloading and isolation mechanisms. OSGI comes to mind, assuming it doesn't bloat the whole thing. -Bertrand
