It was intended - it's never been called 'Oz Weather' always 'OzWeather'... apparently I made a typo somewhere back before...well, before Github was even a thing! If it will create problems I can change it back, but it's just niggled at me for like 15 years and suddenly I felt like fixing it. I figured if the addon ID was the same it would just be a cosmetic thing to correct the name, but maybe that is wrong?

# (Updated 2026-03)
# BOM API icon_descriptor → Kodi weather code mapping
# BOM source: api.weather.bom.gov.au (modern REST API, icon_descriptor field)
# Kodi codes: https://kodi.wiki/view/Weather_addons#Weather_Codes
#
# Notes:
# - Modern BOM API descriptors use underscores (e.g. partly_cloudy)
# - Legacy FTP/XML descriptors (e.g. cloud_increasing, rain_developing) are
# retained below for backwards compatibility but marked accordingly
# - Day/night split: day uses sun icons (32=sunny, 34=fair/partly sunny),
# night uses moon icons (31=clear night, 33=fair night)
