Hi all,

This will be my last post to the uportal-dev list. *I will be moving future
conversations to portlet-dev*, however I wanted to make sure those involved
are aware of the move.

Here are a few updates on the weather portlet. I wanted to keep everyone
informed about it's status.

To answer some questions in the other posts, here are some *responses from
AccuWeather.*

   - They do not consider any institutions to be a commercial user.
   - They have no logo requirement sizes; as long as its visible its
   fine.

Updates to the *status of the portlet *itself:

   - The IWeatherDao has been implemented using AccuWeather's services. I
   ended up using DOM4J for flexibility in retrieving/parsing the document.
   - A 'generic' test has been written to support IWeatherDao
   implementations.
   - The view and edit mode have been implemented.
   - The domain classes have been adjusted. I tried to think as global as
   possible so other services can be implemented

These are the items I have left *to do*:

   - Add styling
   - Fix bugs in edit controller class
   - Test on base installs of various uPortals (2.5, 2.6, and 3). I may
   need to revert to Spring 2.0 instead of 2.5.1...
   - Create documentation
   - Implement Yahoo Weather service to test flexibility

That's all. :-D

Thanks,
Dustin.
