Google map data is the primary issue here, testing (via a self-hosting script is very desirable and doable with OL+OSM).

The JS calls to the data server must must be over https because Lp users hate getting mixed security warnings. I am not aware any tile server for OSM that provides images over HTTPS. The alternate option is to create a proxy, which is undesirable work.

I think we want to replace the gmap calls with openlayer calls for OSM data. I think this means:
* creating an OSM map
* Placing markers for users
* Adding popup for markers
* Allowing a user to add/move his marker on his location map.

We want tests for:
* showing a user's map
* Allowing a user to set his location from a map
* Showing a small team map and displaying a marker's popup
* Showing a large team map and displaying a marker's popup
