VRPN Known Bugs as of version 7.02

I hate to release software with known bugs, but have receently become convinced by The Cathedral and the Bazaar that it is better to release early and often than to wait forever between releases. So here they are:

• The InterSense startup code is not resetting the device correctly (see email from djzielin@duke.edu).
• Need to take a look at the vrpn_ForceDevice object and make sure it has support for the object hierarchy in all objects, not just the triangle meshes.
• The HDAPI ForceDevice object does not yet include complete plane support nor any support for polygon meshes. It needs to be extended to include the HL library to support these.
• Need to add updates from Jan P. Springer's group (these are really overdue). See email from him.
• Need to add changes from Tom de Weyer regarding the keymouse class. See email from him.
• The doing_okay() and connected() methods on the vrpn_Connection have not been checked since the splitting out of the Endpoint code. Document when they should return true/false and then make them do the right thing.
