Broken imagery layer.

[skyper]

I think this imagery is not available anymore until someone steps up to maintain it.

Should we remove the entry?

[cmuelle8]

Actually JOSM has builtin tools to "produce" a black-white map on-the-fly. Use the normal Carto Standard layer (colored) and then use desaturate tool from the layers menu (there is a generic slider for color saturation of imagery layers). However, someone heavily depending on this will have to move the slider anytime the layer is added to the layer list - there is currently no way to store this in the preset, imho.

Simply remove dead layers...

Replying to stoecker:

Simply remove dead layers...

Sorry, I can't as it is a default entry.
