I haven't looked at the weather plasmoid myself, but given that there's an 
existing codebase there, all one has to do is re-write it, not come up with a 
whole new thing (mostly, anyways).

it's not really too high on my list of stuff to do, but I have quite a bit of 
free time.

But I think what would be cool is if there was some sort of integration 
between the two. If you could get data from kweather and use it to make a 
dynamic theme for kworldclock that showed stuff like temerature etc. maybe 
you could get like radar and stuff for it too.
