Chris Male commented on LUCENE-2139:
------------------------------------

Nicolas,

Its true that Solr does not support spatial tier search but this was due to the code in spatial lucene being so buggy.  I think everybody is happy to revisit the issue and add spatial tier support to Solr if we can come up with a clear, test and bug-free underlying implementation.

I think whatever work we do we should do in a spatial module.

Simon,
Perhaps we should @deprecate the contrib in 3x, nuke in 4x and start up the module?

>
> The current spatial contrib can be improved by adding documentation, tests, removing unused classes and code, repackaging the classes and improving the performance of the distance filtering.  The latter will incorporate the multi-threaded functionality introduced in LUCENE-1732.  
> Other improvements involve adding better support for different distance units, different distance calculators and different data formats (whether it be lat/long fields, geohashes, or something else in the future).
> Patch to be added soon.
