Yep, so if there is no active 3G connection, it will start it and update itself according to your update interval.

Nope.
Or at least make it then configurable.

I do NOT want any application to start an inet connection on its own!
I thought it is about hooking in to the update interval again, when there was an out-time of connection and MeeCast detects a re-established connection.
(I do change the update intervals with ProfileMatic for switch of WLAN - 2G/3G)

This is more what I was thinking. If I have started Meecast and I push the refresh button, I would like it to start an inet connection if there is no connection running. Currently it does nothing if there is no active connection.

In case of manual (explicit) button press, I may agree that opening a connection is acceptable/convenient. But definitely NOT from background synchronization, please.

Why not? If settings will allow you to disable it and also choose a default internet connection, it will be perfect. Though it's a lot of work, it will be fine just to have this done:

would guess open inet conn dialog will be easier/doable to achieve

Agreed.
Now it is up to vlad to decide if it is worth the work

How do I change the Weather service provider after installation setup? I chose yr.no as I heard it was good, but the main screen shows "there appears to be no weather data for this location" (translated from Finnish). Is this a problem with yr.no or problem with something else?

EDIT: Apparently it was a problem with yr.no after all, I found the setting to switch location and from there I was able to choose the service provider too, and I chose the Finnish Meteorology Institute and was able to get weather data just fine.

Dear Vlad.

First of all, thank you for your nice application.
I'm using it with Billboard standby screen.

I have one question about it.
I set the billboard app. to show {meecast-description} on
the standby screen.
Usually, it shows weather description text from MeeCast, like "Clear", "Cloudy", "Snow" or something.
But sometimes it outputs incomprehensible text instead, like...
Code:
Project-Id-Version: MeeCast
Report-Msgid-Bugs-To:
POT-Creation-Date: 2014-11-25 08:30+0300
PO-Revision-Date: 2013-08-12 08:22+0000
Last-Translator: Vlad Vas <vasvlad@gmail.com>
Language-Team: LANGUAGE <LL@li.org>
Language: en_US
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Plural-Forms: nplurals=2; plural=(n != 1);
Do you have any idea what's causing it?
Is there any way to avoid it?

I'm using MeeCast for Harmattan Version 0.9.12.
