Description

The 2.x migration doc (here) mentions that author is generally, and automatically, mapped to it's dc:creator equivalent when returned by Tika 2.x.  That doesn't seem to be happening for HTML files. Can this be fixed?

author.html

$ curl -X PUT --upload-file /mnt/c/tmp/author.html --header "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"author.html\"" --header "Accept:Application/json" http://localhost:9998/rmeta/text | python -m json.tool
