> The aim here is to extend the methods for language identification within text. MIT Lincoln Labs has an open source library [1] written in Julia. Having spoken  with the MITLL guys there is a possibility that there is a scala version of this library which would make it easier to package in with Tika. 
> At this point I'm not quite sure how many languages this library supports by default but it can be extended when provided some training data.
