Creating this issue to keep the various feature requests and suggestions sorted out in one place.

I'm working on this whenever I have the spare time and inclination, but as this is not my dayjob, I am sorry that I can't give any promises on the progress. Any patches or help is appreciated :)

Requests and current status

Feature Notes Progress
Map integration Both for an overview map for several locations, as well as a smaller map for a single location. Looking at possible solutions
More layout configuration options For example an overview similar to the suggested by helge_karl in this image. Work in progress
Integration with location Depending on how fast I am and how fast location is developed, this may be for location-7.x-4.x. Planned, not started
Integration with GeoNames First of all for creating a "your current weather"-block. Maybe more. Planned, not started

There is now an alternative layout on the overview page, with boxes like in the mockup helge_karl made. No map is included yet. Will show up in the next dev snapshot. Backport to D6 will come later.

Attached patch has a bug that's been fixed in comment #5
This is my 70% complete code for integration with the node location feature in Location.module. 6.2.2 because that's what I'm running on my own site, at least a few hoops have been jumped through if anyone wants this for 7.x. Be warned, this is for review and reference only. The exposed parts of the node location feature do work however, and a lot of the XML traversal that's now branched to support two different formats (AFAIK there's no yr.no API that accepts either named location or coordinates and outputs the same XML either way, hence all this bother).

You're welcome! Scrap that first patch though, it's got a small but major bug I discovered this weekend, in the detection of location information in nodes, new patch attached.

Ok, thanks. I'll get back to this next week, as I'm going offline for some vacation :)

Hello again. I have to apologize for not having worked on this module the past weeks, but I have been swamped with work and school (which are not related to Drupal), so I simply have not had the time. I will find the time, and hopefully soon.
