Jukka Zitting updated TIKA-204:
-------------------------------

    Attachment: TIKA-204.patch

Here's a patch that replaces the classes we've copied from Ant with a proper dependency to commons-compress.

There is still no release of commons-compress, so I'm not applying this yet in trunk, but I'm planning to create a TIKA-204 feature branch where we can add support for more formats from commons-compress. We can merge the branch back to trunk when commons-compress 1.0 is out.

> The commons-compress component [1] in the Commons sandbox contains improved versions of the package parser classes we currently have as sources copied from Apache Ant. I think we should drop our versions of the classes as soon as there's a release of commons-compress for us to use as a normal dependency.
