Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-3795:
---------------------------------------

bq. 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.

Can we add polygon support using the java.awt.geom.Area class? It has lots of 
code vor overlapping polygons and similar stuff... My own gazeteer using Lucene 
is based on this. In general we could ad another strategy to handle this 
(java.awt.geom implements lots of different shape types, in contrast to 
"normal" AWT double not integer based).

> 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.
