Apache Tika 0.5 Released, Solr Cell updated on trunk
The Apache Tika team just announced Tika 0.5 is released (c&p of announcement below). I upgraded Apache Solr’s Tika integration (aka Solr Cell) to use the new libraries this morning. To use, check out SVN trunk from Apache Solr.
The Apache Lucene project is pleased to announce the release of Apache Tika 0.5. The release contents have been pushed out to the main Apache release site and the m2 ibiblio sync, so the releases should be available as soon as the mirrors get the syncs.
Apache Tika, a subproject of Apache Lucene, is a toolkit for detecting and extracting metadata and structured text content from various documents using existing parser libraries.
