Patrick's original version of localluce included geotools -- to make
it Apache license compatible we took that out and make the distance
calculations pluggable.
The hardcoded miles part should be changeable -- feel free to post any
patches and we can make it a better solution.

I wonder anyway if GIS code should be in any Lucene package..

Yeah it's hard coded to use miles, 5 years in the US gets to you..
But the functionality doesn't change radius is double so you just
need to
convert km to miles
for the DistanceQueryBuilder and just convert back from miles to km
to
display.

I'm working on local search functionality and am about to use the
spatial
code in contrib.
I managed to have a proof of concept running using
LatLongDistanceFilter.
The only problem I have with this filter is that it is hardcoded
to use
Miles!
Basically my question is what are the plans for the spatial code?
Is it
going to stay the way it is?
