Jukka Zitting updated TIKA-628:
-------------------------------
Attachment: TIKA-628.patch
As a first step I'd simply make the runnable tika-app jar available as a direct
download from the download page.
To do this we can take the already released tika-app-0.9.jar from Maven
central, put it in the dist folder, and apply the attached patch. I suppose no
new release vote is needed since no bits are changed.
Unless anyone sees problems with this I'll make the changes tomorrow.
> Binary distribution for releases

> At the moment, we don't produce a binary distribution, only a source one. As
> discussed on the mailing list a few times, I think we should change this.
> I'd suggest that we build a binary package that contains:
> * tika-app, tika-parsers and tika-core jar files
> * javadocs
> * a directory with all the dependencies in it (likely the same list as used
> in the tika bundle)
> This would allow non maven users to quickly get started with using Tika.
