Keith R. Bennett commented on TIKA-14:
--------------------------------------
I haven't researched the links Thilo provided, but I noticed that when I
uploaded the sample .odt file to Jira (see TIKA-16), Jira itself assigned it a
mime type of application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text (as Thilo also suggested).
The folks at Atlassian (makers of Jira and Confluence) seem to really know
what they're doing, and I'd consider their choice of mime type pretty reliable.
How about we use that for now unless and until we come up with a better one?

>
> MimeTypeUtils.getMimeType() returns the default mime type for .odt (Open
> Office) files.
> Because of this, it is not possible to parse OpenOffice files at this time.
> I did some brief research, and could not find a mime type for Open Office
> files. There was a comment that the mime type associated with these files is
> application/zip, since Open Office document files are zipped files. That, of
> course, will not help us, since it would not be reasonable for us to assume
> that all zip files have Open Office content.
> It is possible that there is now a mime type for Open Office documents, and I
> just could not find it. (I hope so.)
