In a quick test of the "Online" maps, OSM_tiled_mapnik.geo was the only one
I found that actually worked, the rest showed either file not found errors,
"bad Magick header" (meaning they were HTML error pages, not images), or
timed out.

Has anyone on the list been using a map other than OSM_tiled_mapnik.geo and
had it work?  Looks like almost all of the servers we have relied on are now 
gone.  OSM_tiled_mapnik still works, at least.

If this is the only one that works, then the others need to be removed from
our top-level Makefile.am (where the .geos are generated from a template).

I think all the weather radar maps are also broken, as their associated
servers vanished ages ago.  Their associated geos should probably not be
installed anymore.

If anyone has information about new OSM servers that can replace those we've
lost, it is not terribly difficult to add new ones --- a matter of
getting an appropriate URL and options strings to pass to the server.
