Hi Socrates,
There is an --insecure option for both the VenueClient and VenueServer.
The insecure option uses http for soap communications and 
considerably speeds up actions such as entering a venue.  But, with 
the current toolkit, there are a few AGTk components (such as the 
EventService and TextService) that need to be be modified to avoid all 
need for security, so globus and a globus proxy are still required at 
this time.
