[Xastir] Maps?

[David Ranch]

Hey Jason,

There was some great threads on the offline tile server topic earlier 
this year and while I can do the work, the storage requirements seemed 
pretty high.  My biggest issue is that I'm just not very happy with OSM 
in terms of having pretty maps. Google Maps say on aprs.fi are far 
easier to read, etc. but Google's terms don't allow tile caching for 
offline use, etc.
