Hi,

Yes, thanks for the help Brian! Sorry for the late reply.

I finally got around to getting my AutoDetectProductCrawler working. In response, Chris I hope you don't mind I've given some feedback about my experiences with the crawler on the wiki page that you created below. I hope thats okay. Please feel free to modify/add/revert as you wish.

Cheers,
Tom

Others can feel free to jump on and contribute.

Cheers,

MetExtractorProductCrawler will use a single extractor for all files . . . AutoDetectProductCrawler requires a mapping file to be filled out an mime-types defined
