[Ferret-talk] GeoSearch with Ferret

[Christian Aust]

Hi all,

unfortunately, the site tourb.us has been closed, but the wayback  
machine still reveals their approach to geo-searches with ferret [1].  
In 2006, Dave (Balman?) replied that things could be handled  
differently in later versions. I'm new to Ferret/Ruby/Rails (although  
I've extensive experiences with Lucene/Java) so I'm wondering if that  
actually was implemented, and how such code should look like today. I  
couldn't find an example or tutorial, can anybody please help out?

Kind regards,

Christian
