[Opensim-users] Worrying about xloc,yloc

[Ai Austin]

I wonder if anyone can explain why we see the 256000,256000 
coordinates in diagnostic reports within Opensim.exe, and I now see 
also in the "About" box in an SL viewer...

You are at 256131.6, 256126.7, 29.6 in Openvue located at 
killegray.aiai.ed.ac.uk (129.215.219.138:9000)
OpenSim 0.7 (RC1) (Win/.NET)

For example my Openvue region is at the xloc,yloc of 1000,1000.  DSo 
I wonder if the figure represents a number of metres from 0,0? I.e. 
256*1000 + offset in metres within region?
