Simon Willnauer commented on LUCENE-2139:
-----------------------------------------
bq. Pity to remove code before replacing one is still not here : what will the
users do ?
While I can understand you reasons why this is a pity i have to say that the
code you are referring to is a big mess currently. In 4.0 we have the
possibility to get rid of that stuff an let folks develop something cleaner,
maybe better, tested, documented and already integrated (Solr). AFAIK there is
already a whole bunch of stuff in solr related to geo search and we can move
that stuff out into a module to make it available to Lucene users too.
so here is my +1 for closing the issues, deprecate everything in 3.0 nuke
spatial in 4.0. Chris, do you want to go ahead and create the issues?

> Cleanup and Improvement of Spatial Contrib
> ------------------------------------------

> Key: LUCENE-2139
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2139
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: contrib/spatial
> Affects Versions: 3.1
> Reporter: Chris Male
> Assignee: Simon Willnauer
> Attachments: LUCENE-2139-Java5Only.patch, LUCENE-2139-svnScript.sh,

>
> The current spatial contrib can be improved by adding documentation, tests,
> removing unused classes and code, repackaging the classes and improving the
> performance of the distance filtering. The latter will incorporate the
> multi-threaded functionality introduced in LUCENE-1732.
> Other improvements involve adding better support for different distance
> units, different distance calculators and different data formats (whether it
> be lat/long fields, geohashes, or something else in the future).
> Patch to be added soon.
