RE: [AG-TECH] VenueVNC

So you mean that in order for VenueVNC to work on Windows there needs to be 
a server and viewer running on the same machine?  Sorry, I feel a bit dense 
about this - I use VNC all the time, and presumed that what I would be 
doing with the VenueVNC app was to start up a viewer that I could point to 
an arbitrary venue server out there.  Is this an incorrect assumption?  Or 
is this the first step towards setting up a service that a node presents to 
the world?

If there's documentation that I should go and read (more than the readme) 
please feel free to point me in that direction.
