Thanks Nick and thanks Arturo, for the offer to write a small guide to getting started with parsing. It might be good to create a JIRA issue for this? Arturo, can you head over to JIRA and create an issue to contribute a "get Tika parsing up and running in 5 minutes" quick start guide? Then, you could write the guide in APT format (see here [1] for an example and [2] for more detailed information), add your new guide file to your local SVN checkout, create a patch and then attach it to your new issue. I'd be happy to get it into the documentation sources.
Thanks!

Now it works perfectly, thank you very much for your help. It might be interesting to write a small manual: "How to create a new Tika Parser for Dummies". Simply including the three steps that I have finally figured out (new Parser, tika-mimetypes.xml, list the new parser).
