Shuffle responses on the server #6

When drawing a subset of occurances from the GBIF api, they might be sorted by some internal database query. Given that a subset should taken from random distribution of samples for best performance and generalization, it would be idea if samples could be drawn randomly from the API.

currently this is not supported and we might want to raise this issue on either of the following trackers

@timrobertson100 would you be able to share some insights on this and what would be the best place to address this?

Thanks for pinging me - I've created the mirror issue to get discussions going on our side.

Any progress on this? I feel that this is a very important feature for creating a dataset.
