Yes. openstreetmap.org.uk would be a good canonical url, and appropriate in my 
opinion, that OSMF would own the domain but point it at an someone's server. Is 
firefishy the man to organise this?
Note: if that is the canonical url, this would mean that Dennis should be 
looking into *redirecting* osmuk.org (a different technical process. probably 
easier). We don't want two different functioning domains for the website

[Talk-GB] UK website using OSM to show "live rain map"

[Jason Cunningham]

Just seen that the latest OpenGeoData blog entry (Weekly OSM Summary #47)
links to a weather map that uses OSM as map.

Reminded me that a UK weather website is using OpenStreetMap for its maps,
and that the free version of the live rain map might prove useful to people
out mapping. Does not work well on a mobile though. As well as being an
nice example of OSM use it could be very useful to a lot of us out mapping
(especially this summer!). The link for the live rain map is
http://www.netweather.tv/index.cgi?action=radar

There is a lot other overlays which you have to subscribe to view,
including a for better version of the live rain map which can be very
useful if you spend a lot of time outdoors.
