RE: [backstage-developer] Weather Geolocation
Sorry for coming rather late on this thread. You could try using Yahoo! Pipes - http://pipes.yahoo.com. A pipe can accept XML data using the Fetch Data module, and there is an option to have the output of the pipe in JSON format.

No, not a hack. This happens about once a year when someone includes the frontpage rather than the new thing they wanted to add to the page. Paul.

I've noticed that some of the BBC Local Radio stations are now starting to appear within the new /programmes structure. For example you can use the link http://www.bbc.co.uk/norfolk/programmes/schedules/today.xml to get today's schedule for Radio Norfolk in XML format. Does anyone know when the local radio stations will be added to the index of stations at http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes and thus be considered 'official'? I'm slightly wary of starting to use these local radio XML feeds if they are going to be moved or pulled in the near future. On a similar vein, does anyone know when the move of local radio to iPlayer is likely to happen, and thus the Audio on Demand data become available at http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/availability/[network].xml http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/availability/%5Bnetwork%5D.xml http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/availability/%5Bnetwork%5D.xml in the same way as the national stations are?
