We [1] came up with the idea of having some sort of libxslt/xpath solution and have gweather point to this file [on www.gnome.org] instead of pointing to the actual Yahoo site. From an ARC point of view, they get quite upset when things can break overnight with no control over it. I think we'll be eventually looking at this one, but more likely in the future. See ya, Glynn ;) [1] We = Sun, well actually Laca ;)
