David,

After uploading a layer, and visualising it in the map,
you will have a "remove" link in the "Manage"
menu, which, well, removes the layer (after confirmation). I am testing
on my local (vbox) installation, but I guess this action may be restricted
if I am not the owner of the layer (on the demo server).

But, still, seems to work for me.

GL

PS. Did the demo server delete the user/passwd combinations after
a new install? Hence, do I have to re-register? I can't login with my
existing credentials.

I'm looking into the upload issues on the demo site now, should have a resolution today.

However, I am a bit concerned by your comment about 'removing' a layer... GeoNode does not support any form of layer or metadata removal right now, so I don't know what you mean by this.

    There are some other curious problems with the upload.
    I upload a shape layer (OK), then remove it and try to
    upload again (not OK, the browser (firefox) blocks).

    After restart of the browser, the layer name will show up
    in a search, though, but the data cannot be found. The
    layer appears in the maps_layer table of development.db.

    Maybe a non-standard use case, but this may explain some
    of the issues.
