Tika Team, I'm finally coming back to this thread and getting Apache NiFi all caught up with the latest Tika-Core and Tika-Parsers version.
I am back to looking at the GeoAPIs 3.0.0 stuff which as you mentioned the license is ok. It does, however, have a transitive dependency on 'JSR 275 0.9.3' library. The license for this was much harder to find but this appears to be it [1] and it appears decided un-ASF friendly to me. Can you please clarify why this library is ok to use? I'm just trying to get our L&N done for NiFi so want to understand how this is ok. I was not able to find anything in the Legal discuss/JIRA for this. Here is the GeoAPIs team talking about this dependency and what they will do with it [2, 3].
