[Xastir] Weather Data

[Gerry Creager]

Hmmm.  TO do that, you'd have to cache or database all the data 
locally... OR... place a web service request to a server somewhere, OR, 
an SQL request to a server.  I can look at the web service request angle 
but need to talk to some of my folks here.  At this point, I don't see 
that as a mouse-over service as that'd require some fairly hefty coding 
on the UI in Xastir.  I could see it added to a right-click, with less 
work, however.

Parsing it from logs is tedious and time-consuming.  Believe me.  I know.
