Hey-
We've gotten feedback over the last couple years about our examples
generating a bit of confusion. Because, in general, we add to and do
not modify examples, we are not necessarily demonstrating best-practices
use of OpenLayers.
In addition to getting rid of examples that demonstrate the use of
deprecated code, I think we should update existing examples in a couple
ways. These are minor, but I think we should (at least) do the following:
* use <!DOCTYPE html> (xhtml is dead)
* remove superfluous "/" attributes on elements that don't need a
closing tag (i.e. void elements like <br>, <link>, <img>, and <input>
don't have a closing tag)
* include script tags at the end of the body
Nothing urgent about this, but if folks want to provide patches for the
current example set, your contributions are welcome.

Feedback welcome.
