The big scary comment from the carmen repo owner makes me a bit leery of using carmen, though with 200+ forks, it looks like it won't be going away anytime soon, either.
I've used MaxMind's database with other languages (perl) and I know it's good, too. I'm happier letting someone else manage the collection and dissemination of geographic data that I can update, than needing to update a gem for data updates.
I think the biggest wins, by far, are the cities and the update mechanism.

In my country new cities are created weekly, so its necessary to maintain the base updated. But its good to know this gem, and I will be glad if you know if there's a gem that provides a list of cities too.Thanks.
