Thanks again for your response Ron.
It seems you're the one in the mailing list. Perhaps people are on their 
holidays.

I'm beginning to realize that I was wrong.

Because of your response, I've been looking for information and I've found 
Apache Lucene and Apache Tika. I have to try both, but it seems that they 
can work toghether for extracting and indexing files, and tika supports lots 
of formats.

I'm considering that I don't need to use jackrabbit for my application 
actually. Perhaps, I only need those tools to search inside the files I want 
to store.
I'm think I don't need a repository. I can save the properties of the files 
in a database, and the files in normal folders.
I think it'd be pretty easy for me because I'm used to work with databases, 
but I've never worked with a repository.
In fact, I was going to use the repository for its search capabilities, but 
I'm realizing that I don't need it.
I'm going to try with Lucene and Tika first.

Thanks a lot.
