@kkrugler Thank you for reviewing this. >I don't see the IOExceptionWithCause class being deprecated `IOExceptionWithCause` in `Tika` was copying from `commons-io 1.4`. And `IOExceptionWithCause` in `commons-io` has be deprecated since `commons-io 2.5`. see [this](https://github.com/apache/commons-io/blob/aafc3272b38fa51d558f190fbbdac50d62027fdb/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/io/IOExceptionWithCause.java) > as removing it would be a breaking change Agree, This will break binary compatibility. And we should only break BC in major version. As I see, `main` branch is prepare for `Tika-2.0` which will be the new major version. So I believe this is a good time to break BC. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
