Jukka Zitting commented on TIKA-118:
------------------------------------

Unlike Jackrabbit, we do bundle the Bouncy Castle libraries (at least with 
current TIKA-115 implementation) and have the following code snippet:

    if (pdfDocument.isEncrypted()) {
        try {
            pdfDocument.decrypt("");
        } catch (Exception e) {
            // Ignore
        }
    }

I'm wondering if the export control stuff would be troublesome for some 
downstream users. If yes, then we probably should produce alternative builds 
with and without crypto code. Alternatively we could debate whether it might be 
easier to just drop all the crypto dependencies and functionality.
