A previous developer at my company made one of our internal processes 100% dependent on the geonames webservice lookup to turn coordinates into addresses. Yesterday, the geonames service was unavailable for ~60% of the calls we made to it.
I need to write a service that regularly downloads geonames data and can serve up these x,y coordinate lookups for addresses.

Is there an open source project out there where someone already wrote this?
