After a bit of wrangling, I've been able to import the latest TIGER data
from my county (Maricopa, AZ) and generate Mapnik tiles.  Being able to see
the whole thing is pretty cool.  Here's a link to my local copy (hopefully
it will survive):

I had a couple problems with the resulting OSM file, but looking through the
neighborhoods I know, they seem pretty complete.  Here's what I encountered:

- Some stuff was generated with positive ID's, so JOSM freaked out trying to
upload it
- Quite a few ways were generated with no segments

I am going to continue to review data and see if I can figure out what's
going on with the above two issues.
