[Paraview] paraviewweb portability question

[Sebastien Jourdain]

Hi Josh,

thanks for your feedback evaluation.

Sorry for the confusion on the wiki but as you mentioned the text is valid
for the latest release but not consistent with git master.
I'll do a pass to update it.

For the windows package, it is true that we still need to fix the install
tree.
Will do it before the official ParaView release.

Regarding the issue where the data does not load, I'm a bit confused on
what you are exactly doing to load that can.ex2.
Is the issue that when you open the file browser, you can not select the
file or when you click on the file nothing happen?

Seb
