Weather Applet



Hello,

I know there was some discussion earlier about the weather applet, and
where to get the data for it.

I was playing around on the weather.com site, and it turns out they have
an XML feed for weather data.  The only hitch being this beautiful peice
of legalese that comes before it.

I'm not sure if GNOME can really use it or not.  One part I'm unsure
about is the 'no mobile devices' stuff, that might conflict with the
GPL.  Is there someone out there that can comment?  Perhaps, if this is
a problem and someone 'offical' (from the GNOME foundation) called their
business services they'd be willing to change it.  I don't know, I
thought I'd just bring it up as an idea.

As far as the XML itself goes, it seems pretty straight forward - pretty
much the data that we want.  It has a locale field, but I can't figure
out how to get it to do anything but 'en_US' (seems like it must be able
to though).
