GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 155203
New locations in Germany for gweather
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
May I commit this patch that adds some German airports to the locations file? The patch applies only cleanly, if the patch from bug 155202 was applied. The resulting Locations.xml.in is xmllint clean ;-)

Comment on attachment 32524 [details] [review] New locations patch Assuming the - between Berlin-Schonfeld and Berlin-Tegel are airports or somesuch, this is now deprecated. Instead, you can use the <city> tag to have multiple locations. This means you can have Berlin - Schonefeld - Tegel etc. It would be great if you could update your patch to use this as it's now available in gweather 2.9.
Okay, I'll group the locations where possible. While I'm at it, I'll add states information for Germany. Is it possible to mix <states> and <city>s outside of <state>s in a country? I.e. <country> <state> ... Bavaria ... </state> <city> ... Berlin ... </city> <city> ... Hamburg ... </city> <state> ... Hessen ... </state> <country> (Berlin, Hamburg and Bremen are their own states.)
There's another patch to include German cities cooking in bug 151505.
Created attachment 32676 [details] [review] Updated patch. I added city tags for Berlin and Hamburg. Additionally I grouped the locations by state (Bundesland) and sometimes improved the names using information from Wikipedia and http://www.eddh.de (airport database, it seems). The patch from bug 151505 had 5 additional cities. weather.noaa.gov returned only several months old information for those 5 so I added them in comments (so it's easy to readd them should they ever become active again)
*** Bug 151505 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment on attachment 32676 [details] [review] Updated patch. I can't actually test this at the moment. You should add comments to the commented out cities saying why they are commented out. Otherwise this looks fine to commit to HEAD.
What's the status of this?
Committed but "someone" forgot to close the bug. Sorry and thanks for the reminder.
