Can you provide me the correct URLs (as found in the gnome-weather app) we 
should reverse proxy requests from?

Ideally we can add a weather.gnome.org subdomain and have that reverse proxying 
to the two available providers through mod_proxy. That will require 
gnome-weather to adopt weather.gnome.org as its main provider but that 
shouldn't be hard ;)
