-----------

General

Support for Applications has been introduced; however, Venue Client hooks 
have not been completed.

Installation

There is an issue with installing the media tools in a non-default location.

Media Tools

There is a set of known issues with the media tools, related to startup, 
control and shutdown. These are blocking on a better interface for 
controlling the tools.

Node Management

The integration of Node Management with the Venue Client has been improved 
under Windows; the underlying node management components will start more 
reliably and load the default configuration, though the venue
client does take longer to start. These improvements have yet to be 
extended to the Linux platform and multiple machine nodes.
