Chris Male commented on LUCENE-3795:
------------------------------------
Huge +1
Thanks so much David for opening this issue and getting the code to a point
where it can be contributed. I'm really excited to see this brought into the
fold and glad to see support from others.

As far as LGPL, according to David's description and the title of this jira
issue (possible i did not interpret it correctly,
correct me if so), the he wants to replace lucene/contrib/spatial with the
spatial-lucene project, and that
it has no LGPL ties at all, (only spatial-extras does).
{quote}
Absolutely. The portion of the codebase which uses LGPL code is entirely
optional and decoupled from the rest of the code. From a functional
perspective, as David says, its only really related to polygon support which is
hugely powerful but can exist somewhere else if needs be.

> I propose that Lucene's spatial contrib module be replaced with the
> spatial-lucene module within Lucene Spatial Playground (LSP). LSP has been
> in development for approximately 1 year by David Smiley, Ryan McKinley, and
> Chris Male and we feel it is ready. LSP is here:
> http://code.google.com/p/lucene-spatial-playground/ and the spatial-lucene
> module is intuitively in svn/trunk/spatial-lucene/.
> I'll add more comments to prevent the issue description from being too long.
