[Merkaartor] Upload error "Precondition failed"

[Chris Browet]

Hi Boris,

This bug has already been corrected in SVN.
I plan to release an interim Windows version this Weekend.

I like your idea of having track layers read-only. I would make this
optional, though, as I know some mappers like to delete unnecessary nodes of
their tracks.

If you could open a TRAC ticket with this suggestion, I'd be grateful.

Regards
