I have just installed the 'Super Date Time' PlugIn (from
http://superdatetimewu.sourceforge.net/repo.xml). The Settings for this
PlugIn require a Weather Underground API developer key. However, when I
do a Google search for such a key all I find is the announcements
regarding Weather Underground's removal of the free API keys. See
https://www.wunderground.com/weather/api/

Is there a public domain or known API key that will work with this
Squeezebox PlugIn?

Since WU is not offering a free API key for hobbyists, is anyone
updating 'Super Date Time' to use a different free weather service?

It is not clear whether the most basic level of Weather Underground API
is free or not, there is some confusing information on their website. I
went ahead and registered and filled in the "business" inquiring to
obtain a Weather Data Package, but it appears that is designed for one
of their sales people to harvest prospects and I am not likely to
generate sales revenue, so don't expect anything. I poked around on the
Weather Underground website and find it poorly organized and full of
broken links. Not impressive. :(
