Tim Allison commented on TIKA-1300:
-----------------------------------
[~tilman], [~tboehme] and [~msahyoun], thank you all for your feedback.
The insights above will be helpful to users choosing which parser to use as
default.
[~msahyoun], thank you for actually opening the documents and performing
manual review. That offers some very useful insight.
My takeaway is that I should probably re-open TIKA-1205 and implement that at
some point.
All, if this exercise was of use/interest to you, I'd like to invite you and
all of your PDFBox colleagues to participate in TIKA-1302. That is still very
nascent, and all contributions will be welcome. Initially, recommendations on
corpora, metrics and methods would be handy. Longer term, if you wanted to
borrow code and/or resources to standup your own ongoing batch eval system or
collaborate with us on ours, I think that would be a mutual benefit for both of
our projects.
Thank you, again!

> On TIKA-1298, [~tilman] recommended switching Tika's default to the
> NonSequentialParser. We added a parameter to use the NonSequentialParser in
> TIKA-1201, and there's some good discussion there about the benefits.
> Is the community in favor of switching the default now?
