Hey Guys, Just to summarize, the question on the table is whether or not Tika should require Java6. We had some discussions on this previously (if I get time, will dig up the threads -- ok found time ;) ):
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-888 http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/tika-dev/201011.mbox/%3CC8F38B50.2 3828%25chris.a.mattm...@jpl.nasa.gov%3E I'm +1 for it. Seems like so is Mike, and also Ken K. Any objections from others to require Java6?
