Thanks Lard and Jaques we are still at development. We are referencing some
distance metrics of Scikit-learn and unfortunatelly The author missed to
cross-reference the code for the scikit. Apologize ourserves, and we are
still working on it. People abandoned the project so it's only me work on
it (Marcel Caraciolo) until now.

I will give fresh news on it soon.

Regards,

Marcel
