[Paraview] 3.2 Plugin loading

[Sean Ziegeler]

Ahh, of course I missed it.  Also, of course, I just finished getting 
3.2.0 set up and deployed to all the users.  :)

I'll wait for your 3.2.1 announcement, get the source, make the mods 
there and send a patch.  I'll deploy my modified version to the users 
until 3.2.2 comes out.

Thanks again,
Sean
