Space alignment - once again

[jan-mathijs schoffelen]

Hi Paul,

The simulation routine doesn't care about the co-registration between  
the volume conductor model and the sensor array. It is your  
responsibility to ensure that they are correctly aligned. The sources  
need to be in the same coordinate frame as the sensors, so that's I  
guess what you refer to as fiducial space. Obviously, if your sensor  
positions are expressed in voxel space, you need to specify your  
sources in voxel space as well.

Goood luck,

Jan-Mathijs
