Build 0.1 :)

So after a lot of labor, I have managed to churn out the first release of my address matching engine. I still have a couple of modules to add, but there's always pressure from the business side to release much before I am comfortable. So I put together all that I could asap and released it. I'm getting a match of about 60-70% at block (sub-locality) level for totally free running addresses from live data (some of which were extremely absurd).

I must say I impressed myself! Unfortunately for me, before I perfect something, or finish what I'm doing, something of 'business importance' comes up and I have to move on. One thing I'm sure of though, is that I'm definitely going to finish this paper and publish it in the next 2 months. Cheers to me!
