[GeoNode-users] GeoNode questions (Magnus Nilsson)

[Magnus Nilsson]

Hi Toni
Thank you for the answer. It sounds like I should test again when mapstore
is the default client.

I have updated the Swedish translation to 100% on Transifex, hopefully
those updates will be reflected in the next release.

I will do some additional tests in the coming months and report any issues.
It would be great if we could use GeoNode + QGIS Server as a tool for our
QGIS users to easily create web maps from existing QGIS projects.
