[GeoNode-users] How to use QGIS as backbone server

Mon May 22 20:53:47 PDT 2017

I’m not familiar with the term contrib project in geonode. Is it like a 
standalone package? We would like to ship it with geonode codebase if 
possible (like geonode.geoserver package inside geonode), because we might 
need to modify geonode code. For example, providing support for different 
kinds of file types that QGIS can process.

I’m happy to receive some feedback on this.
