DBusmenu usage is really mandatory for the service side, and I'm not
sure that it can be done in Python, in a successful way. Using Couchdb
in Vala should be no problem. And as a weather backend, GWeather could
be used. I saw a blueprint that you wish to integrate it. Is GWeather
more advanced than pywapi, or at least at the same level?
