Hi Calvin,

Is it possible for you to send one of these files to me? Can you post it 
somewhere so I can poke at it?

If you already have an online map, can you post a link to it so we can see what 
interface it uses to grab the images?

For the ortho and obliques the bigest issue is getting them out of their 
current format, we actually already have an online map of them that was set up 
by a private company who didn't give us much documentation.  The files are 
stored with a .par extention which I havn't had too much luck finding 
documentation on.

"3" works for JOSM too (ImportImage plugin) albeit with limitations
(image size etc.).

It is true that Potlatch doesn't do WMS natively but there are simple
(http://thinkwhere.wordpress.com/2010/07/15/whoots-a-small-wms-to-tile-proxy-wms-in-potlatch/)
and more elaborate (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tirex) ways of
serving a WMS as tiles for consumption by Potlatch.
