Hi all,

Potlatch now has an OpenTopoMap layer. (OpenTopoMap is a project set  
up by Chris Schmidt to provide free basemaps, just like OpenAerialMap  
is for free aerial imagery.)

The particular relevance is that it has full USGS topo coverage, so  
you can trace natural features, paths, and other such things that  
don't show up in TIGER.

To enable it, just open Potlatch, select the 'options' window (the  
tick icon), and choose OpenTopoMap from the menu.

Enjoy. :)

cheers
Richard
