I get no output but a XmlParser exception and crash
Interesting... Not sure what's going on there.
Considering some people will get things like "Reserved" a backup method will be needed.
@morpheus_xx is there an event that triggers only on the first initialisation of the weather plugin? I don't want to keep setting the default location if people clear the list themselves.

Sorry, I was wrong about exception type (it's about xaml, not xml 
), here is the full output:
In any case the configuration of location should get a new button "suggest location", to invoke the new detection on demand.
), here is the full output:No there is no "first run" indicator: the models load the location from settings, when it has not been filled before the list is empty. If it is really required to do only a first-run setup, we might add a bool field to WeatherSettings ("FirstRun") to avoid unwanted creation of locations (if list is empty again).
In any case the configuration of location should get a new button "suggest location", to invoke the new detection on demand.
I was just wondering if there was a nice way.
Xaml makes more sense mind you there isn't much:
Alwell.

<Window x:Class="LocationFinder.MainWindow"

xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="Location Finder" Height="350" Width="525">
<Grid>
<TextBlock Name="Console" Text="" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" />
</Grid>
</Window>Alwell.
Well I spent a little time and implemented the detection method into the weather plugin and I updated the testing tool to hopefully get around the "Reserved" issue (I move onto the next node).
Attached is an updated testing tool (based on the code I used in MP2) so if people could give it a shot and give some feedback.
Oh and to anyone who's familiar with MP2 I used HttpServer.Helpers.XmlHelper to deserialize the XML from freegeoip by adding a reference to HttpServer. I'm not sure if that's the preferred way to do it or just implement my own deserializer, thoughts?

^ doesn't work, I think you are missing the .dll file?
I took out the reference to the json lib.
Shouldn't need anything else (checks).[DOUBLEPOST=1363492620][/DOUBLEPOST]Did you download the new version @kiwijunglist it says no views?
