[ckan-dev] problem with spatial previews

My problem so far was that OpenLayers said it couldn't cope with that
version of the XML standard. Where in the code do you see the demand for
3857? There was a similar issue with the WMS code. However, for WFS I would
have though that it should be less of a problem as the data can be
transformed.
