[VOTE] Graduate Tika to a Lucene subproject (Subproject Acceptance Vote)
Hi,
As summarized below, the incubating Tika project has voted to indicate
their willingness to graduate into a Lucene subproject. We feel that
Tika is probably not "large" enough to become an independent TLP, and
given our close ties to Lucene we'd be eager to be accepted as a
Lucene subproject (see discussion at [1]). And since all our incubator
exit criteria seem to be satisfied (see status at [2]), I'd like to
call the Lucene PMC to vote on accepting Tika as a subproject (see [3]
for the process I'm following).
So, conditional on graduation approval by the Incubator PMC, please
vote on accepting Tika as a Lucene subproject. The vote is open for
the next 72 hours and only votes from the Lucene PMC are binding.
[ ] +1 Accept Tika as a Lucene subproject (if the Incubator approves
the graduation)
[ ] -1 Tika should not become a Lucene subproject
The following Lucene PMC votes (with indication that their vote would
also apply here) were cast already during the Tika PPMC vote, and
(unless they explicitly vote again here) I will automatically be
counting these votes when tallying the results.
+1 Grant Ingersoll
+1 Sami Siren

+1.
I have some reservations, but nothing important enough to change the
vote. Nutch uses Tika mainly as a mime-type detection library, so I'm
not that familiar with its format conversion functionality (the
parsers). However, if Tika becomes a Lucene sub-project, AND if the
documentation gets better (as opposed to nearly non-existent :) ) then I
think this project could play an important role in Nutch - we could then
merge the content parsers in Nutch and Tika into a common code base in
Tika, thus increasing reuse and decreasing maintenance costs.
