[AG-TECH] Unable to connect or load bridge information.

[Darren Condon]

I've never had the problem where the client hangs "loading bridges".
Here at La Trobe Uni and at Wollongong we just don't see any bridges at
all.

This has remained the same through 3.0, 3.01 and 3.02.  Relevant section
of the venueclient.log file is

Tom, should I file this as a bug? I've never been quite sure since some
of my problems in the past have been caused by the way our network
domain is set up.

This problem should now be resolved.  I'm monitoring it in case the
problem recurs.  As always, thanks for reporting it.

On a related note, plans are underway to avoid this kind of problem
completely in the future.
