FuzzyOCR mature enough?
I have seen a lot of buzz around FuzzyOCR lately but by looking at its
web site it shows that the project started only last month. Is this
tool really advisable on a serious system?

I also get false positives. I lower all the scoring to about half (or even
less)
the default value and lower focr_threshold to 0.20. There are known bugs
decoder has not had an opportunity to address. That said, life would
probably be miserable without it.

Be aware that it may give you some false positives on images with texts.
Even in pt_BR (in my case).

Wrong, if you mean the timeline shown that's because the _ticket_system_ is new,
the project is at least a year old, the current _website_ is about 6 months old.

It works fine, I would recommend it.
