Description Simos Xenitellis 2006-01-03 05:25:18 UTC 
Currently, the default location for different localisations comes from several strings that the translator has to make sure they all have sensible values.
Specifically, see
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-i18n/2005-December/msg00157.html

The messages are DEFAULT_CODE, DEFAULT_LOCATION, DEFAULT_RADAR, DEFAULT_ZONE, DEFAULT_COORDINATES.
As gweather already knows the full set of these values due to Locations.xml, then simply providing the DEFAULT_CODE should be enough to traverse the tree and find the rest of the information (name, coordinates, etc).

This would simplify the work of localisers to simply provide the correct airport code.

Bug #158630 was meant to cover this, but the description was somewhat sucky. It has been updated, thanks Simos.
