[jira] [Created] (TIKA-1090) Improve Java Documentation for Apache Tika Metadata

Lewis John McGibbney created TIKA-1090:
------------------------------------------

             Summary: Improve Java Documentation for Apache Tika Metadata
                 Key: TIKA-1090
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1090
             Project: Tika
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: metadata
    Affects Versions: 1.3
            Reporter: Lewis John McGibbney
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.4


As I described on user@ here [0], I was not happy with the Javadoc for Metadata (as it was not explicit about what to replace the legacy Tika Metadata vocabulary with) so I therefore thought it was important to provide a documentation patch to make it more clear to devs/users wishing to build on the Tika Metadata functionality.
This simple patch merely substantiates on the Java documentation for the Metadata class further explaining how the Tika API has changed. In addition other methods now are explicit about what we SHOULD now use. Finally, it also introduces a Feed.java metadata interface (which I can remove if unnecessary/unrequired) which merely introduces some consistent fields we would expect Rome rss/atom/feed parser library to obtain. The final Feed class is a legacy class from the Apache Nutch metadata package.

I will work on the patch today and submit it here in due course.
