I think it would be simpler to do the reprojection before uploading it.
Only needs doing once that way.

OK, I'm having a sleepless night and my mind was wandering. It passed
briefly over crowd-sourced uploading of the data if whoever sets up the
account can share login or create multiple logins (I have the May 2011 TM
Vectormap stuff here). But then I remembered what was involved with using
the original release and wondered if things have changed. I refer mainly to
reprojecting from OSGB to WGS84, which required manual tweaks to every .prj
file [1]. Would this need doing before upload, or is it something that is
now (but not deployed yet) automated within Potlatch 2?
