Bertrand Delacretaz commented on TIKA-6:
----------------------------------------
Two questions about this patch.
I was also going to ask about Jerome's ICLA (as IIUC he wrote most of that
code), but according to http://people.apache.org/~jim/committers.html he's a
Nutch committer so that looks good.
1) Is the freedesktop.org stuff ok, license-wise, to be included in our
codebase?
2) IIUC this stuff is independently reusable, should we make it a separate
Maven module? A standalone tika-mime-type.jar might be useful.
> Port Nutch (or better) MimeType detection system into Tika

> This patch will contribute a MimeType detection system for Tika, including
> MImeType data structure, and associated content-detection facilities. This
> will be based on Nutch's MimeType system as a baseline, however, I'm open to
> suggestions. Jerome Charron mentioned that he had an implementation of a
> MimeType system based on FreeDesktop.org's system. We should look into this
> as well.
