    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1599?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15048545#comment-15048545 ]

-------------------------------------

Hi - i also don't know how hard it would be to support JSoup. Would it be possible to support both?

> There are several Tika issues related to how TagSoup cleans up HTML ([TIKA-381], [TIKA-985], maybe [TIKA-715]), but TagSoup doesn't seem to be under active development.
> On the other hand I know of several projects that are now using [JSoup|https://github.com/jhy/jsoup], which is an active project (albeit only one main contributor) under the MIT license.
> I haven't looked into how hard it would be to switch this dependency.
