Upgrading Solr to Tika 0.8
I'm trying to upgrade Solr's version of Tika to 0.8 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2241), but am getting some new metadata, or, I should say modified metadata names.
Namely, before I had a key named Keywords and now it is named AAPL:Keywords. I'm not sure if this is due to the fact that the file was generated on a Mac or if it is because I am running on a Mac, but either way it is a bit troublesome. Any insight on how to fix/resolve this?

Hi there,
Does this mean that a Solr upgrade to Tika 0.8 is fine then with the exception
that Tika will expose additional metadata?
Just about to attempt the upgrade...
Cheers,

0.8 exposes quite a bit more document metadata, and in some cases these additional fields duplicate previously exposed information. For backwards compatibility we didn't remove the old metadata fields even in cases where the new field is more accurately named or formatted.
In Tika 1.0 we probably should review all such cases and drop the old metadata fields to avoid confusion later on, so you may want to prepare for some extra upgrade work with 1.0.

Hmm, it does look like I'm still getting the Keywords, but this AAPL:Keywords is an additional one. Looks like it is coming from PDFBox. I will update my tests.
