--------------------------------------
Hi Jukka:
> Some of the files have an @author tag with Hari Kodungallur in addition to
> Jerome, do we have some history on the extent of his involvement?
Good question: I don't know much about the history of Hari, but Jerome may.
Doing a bit of research, the only code that has Hari's name in the author tags,
are MimeType.java and MimeTypeException.java. These files are more or less
based on their Nutch versions, which were contributed by Jerome, and covered by
his CLA. The nutch versions are here:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/nutch/trunk/src/java/org/apache/nutch/util/mime/MimeType.java
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/nutch/trunk/src/java/org/apache/nutch/util/mime/MimeTypeException.java
As for the spaces, I've updated them to use Sun's style, 4 space chars for an
indent. So, when I commit the patch that part will be fixed too. As an FYI: do
we want to adopt the Sun convention across the board here? What do others think?
If I don't here anything else about the patch I will commit it sometime in the
next few hours.
Thanks!
Cheers,
Chris

> This patch will contribute a MimeType detection system for Tika, including
> MImeType data structure, and associated content-detection facilities. This
> will be based on Nutch's MimeType system as a baseline, however, I'm open to
> suggestions. Jerome Charron mentioned that he had an implementation of a
> MimeType system based on FreeDesktop.org's system. We should look into this
> as well.
