[Potlatch-dev] What is the Lat-long resolution for Potlatch 2?

Ah, that's certainly a better way to ensure the fidelity of node positions.
Thank you very much for clarifying.

Can I assume that the re-projection on each zoom (especially in high-density
areas) won't slow things down? It will be a bit annoying if Potlatch 2 had
to pause for a bit whenever it had to re-compute the projected coordinates
everytime the user zooms in or out.

Thanks,
Eugene
