Jukka Zitting commented on TIKA-623:
------------------------------------

bq. Is there some way to proceed here without requiring libpst be mavenized?

Certainly. The only thing we'd need is to have the library available as a 
dependency on the central repository (otherwise we can't push out a Tika 
release with such a dependency). This requires no changes to the upstream 
library, just some extra metadata and appropriate -sources and -javadoc jars to 
accompany to the upload. See 
https://docs.sonatype.org/display/Repository/Uploading+3rd-party+Artifacts+to+The+Central+Repository
 for details.

Anyone can volunteer to take care of this. See for example 
https://groups.google.com/d/topic/tagsoup-friends/vIUe_jSR5YQ/discussion for a 
thread where I volunteered and did this for a recent release of the TagSoup 
library.

> Hello everyone,
> As you might know, Outlook stores its mails and other stuff in a single PST 
> file. There's a relatively new Java library called java-libpst for reading 
> Outlook PST files. It is licensed under the LGPL and available over here: 
> http://code.google.com/p/java-libpst/
> I have tested the library on Outlook 2000 and Outlook 2003, with good 
> results. It would be great if the library could be integrated into Tika.
> Best regards
> Tran Nam Quang
