[Paraview] New ParaView

[Andy Cedilnik]

Hello Arash,

We spend some time evaluating various widget sets and so far the most 
robust is Qt. Fltk is great, but it looks unusual. wxWidgets looks more 
native, but there are stability issues on various platforms, such as Mac 
OSX.

As far as accessing Server Manager without GUI, it is actually possible 
and not that hard right now. The API is not well documented externally, 
but we do offer a ParaView developers course.

Hopefully that helps.
