[Opensim-users] [0.7.1] Maptiles not showing in Place Information window

[Justin Clark-Casey]

Basic map appears to be okay on 0.7.1, so I'm guessing that this bug manifests when there are actually objects?

In any case, I agree it would be good to do a 0.7.1.1 soon when the obvious bugs have been squished.  I'd be happy to 
pump that out.
