In short, it is a map to the KJV. But only where different. It handles merges, splits and one to one. 

Going to between any two uses the map to KJV as an intermediate.

Would somebody explain, or put it on the wiki and post a link, as to how and where this mapping is defined? So far, all I see is a list of the number of verses in each chapter, and the order of books. But there must be something that defines the mapping between equivalent verses of different v11n's.

In a Logos verse map, every verse has a list of all the references for that verse in all other versifications. If a whole book matches verse for verse with another v11n, it just references that v11n, but if there is even one verse different from any existing v11n, every verse has to be spelled out.
