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

Hi Chris

I was wondering what the exact status of this fix is?  I work with Simon but he has now gone on holiday, so I am following up in his absence.  I would like to use the Tika version containing this fix (if it exists).  The confusion arises in my mind because the 0.8 release page shows a date of 27th May, but the item (TIKA-391) says "UNRESOLVED".
Could you please clarify?

Thanks

Chris Bamford

> I am doing some testing of Tika 0.6 and noticed some odd results for the testEXCEL.xls file included in the test suite. 
> 100 calls to the following code:
>  
>             is = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(filename));
>  
>             Metadata metadata = new Metadata();
>             metadata.set(Metadata.RESOURCE_NAME_KEY, filename);
>  
>             String type = tika.detect(is, metadata);
>  
> Results in different matches as application/msword or application/vnd.ms-excel seemingly at random.
