Hi, Started using it actively. Soon realized that it was unsupported alpha code and didn't fit in the high profile environment we have. Now using my own code to do bounding box / proximity Lucene searches with GeoHashes, faster, more efficient.
My advice, browse the code, get inspired, write your own code only better.
