Looks like you have been working like crazy too. Thanks for adding me
to the credits. Here is an update to the weather helper. I added a
error message if the weather variable was not defined.

I hope this helper isn't too much of a hack. Actually I hope my help
isn't too hacky :)

Ok ignore the last patch I sent. I did not like the idea of having to
use a cron job to schedule the updates. Cron seems to cause a lot of
people confusion. I tweaked the helper to use the time.sleep function
to wait between updates. To enable the plug ad the following to the
local_conf:

Requires cron to call "freevo execute
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/plugins/weather_helper.py"
to get updates. The weather.py plugin will grab new data if the cache is older
than two hours,
so run your cron job more often than that.
