[GeoNode-devel] uploaded layers

[Ariel Nunez]

My opinion is that we should allow people to download the originally
uploaded data.

GeoTools 'fixes' the data and offers to download datasets that are not
extactly the original. This is a big problem in scientific applications but
not a problem for visualization.

I am planning to add a 'Download Original' link in the downloads because we
need it for many of our GeoNodes.

Does it make sense?
