[AG-DEV] Hard Coded anl.gov/140.221 references in 3.3-0r6835 source

[Salim Haniff]

Hi Tim,

This was another situation I was wondering about.  Currently, the  
script is broken down to 2 parts.  The first handles renaming URLs in  
python2.x/site-packages/AccessGrid and the second renames URLs in  
~/.AccessGrid3/Config.  In fact one could comment out the function  
call to rename urls in python2.x/site-packages/AccessGrid or vice  
versa.  Currently, there is some weird quark in the code that's not  
doing the renaming correctly and debugging it at the moment.   
Hopefully, it will be done by tomorrows end (Helsinki time).  Can  
anyone recommend where I can upload the script?

Earlier Jason had some requests:
*         The multicast beacon needs to be disabled by default, to  
ensure it works for windows 7 users.
*         Disable "submit bug" feature on Venue Client.

I don't really know where the code portion part is to disable  
multicast for Windows 7 users, if someone could point that out it  
would be great.  With the second request, I know where in the  
VenueClientUI code to comment out the "submit bug" menu option so it  
would not be active on the GUI.  Would that be ok for now?

Unfortunately, it looks like I cannot attend the meeting tonight.

Best,
Salim
