K. Hurley, T. Cline, S. Barthelmy, and E. Mazets, report:

KONUS-WIND and NEAR (among others) observed GRB000115 (BATSE
#7954).  Preliminary triangulation gives an annulus
centered at RA(2000)=63.092 o, Decl.(2000)=29.512 o,
with radius 72.715 +/- 0.015 o (3 sigma).  This annulus
intersects the RXTE error box (GCN 519) to form an ~21 sq. arcmin.
error box, whose corners are at:

RA(2000)	Decl.(2000)

8 h 03 m 12.5 s -17 o 18 ' 00"
8 h 03 m 21.2 s -17 o 18 ' 00"
8 h 03 m 48.0 s -17 o 10 ' 42"
8 h 03 m 48.0 s -17 o 07 ' 42"
