Hi Mark,  
i tried to get it running using our existing Elasticsearch data, but unfortunately this attempt failed. I also tried original kibana-3.1.2, which yielded the following hint:  
" ... Possibility #2: You are running Elasticsearch 1.4 or higher ..."  
At the moment we're using elasticsearch-1.7.3 so this seems to be a blocker, it will take some time to get this run in a test-environment. Not sure if and how we will continue. If we manage to get it working / or continue trying, i'll post you.  
Thanks!!
