As OpenLayers is causing is more trouble than we anticipated, here's something to do for anyone who is not a dev team member, but wants to contribute. If you know a bit of JavaScript, that would help.

Some alternatives worth investigating:
http://leaflet.cloudmade.com/examples/geojson.html
http://polymaps.org/ex/


I'm looking for more than just opinions. If you pick apart the dynamic map page, you can see the javascript for OpenLayers including where it fetches the data and map images.

If someone can create a replacement using any of the above, we could compare them regarding features, load speed, browser compatability, etc.

No work is needed on that topic. I started upgrading ol2 to openlayers 5. Alternatives are not very viable in my experience. Once map grows, people tend to switch from leaflet to openlayers.
