Nick Burch commented on TIKA-245:
---------------------------------
Eventually we might need to separate out some of the file format parts from the
tika parser package. For now though, I'd vote for doing the same as we've done
for MP3, AutoCad etc, and put the file format reader in with the parser in the
parser package.
