Id be interested, especially if it used same file format as Maxmind's binary dat file ... so it can be a drop in replacement.

Please don't try to use the dat file format. The binary files ending in ".dat" are the Legacy format, which has never been documented. Use the MMDB format linked by oalders in the top comment.
