[AG-TECH] about the VenueClientController in AG2

[Michael Braitmaier]

You are mixing two different things.
The method in (1) is used to upload data to the shared data store of the 
venue. These files are normally visible
in the "Data" section of the VenueClient.

The method in (2) is used to make data on a participant's computer 
available in a session without transfering the data to a different computer.
These files are normally visible below the user's name in the 
particpiant list.

So it depends on which files you want to do something.
The notification of the VenueClientUI is done through events which are 
triggered on server-side and not on client-side.
