 {{{
 #!comment Where did [ <host_venue>venue</host_venue> ] come from? I've removed it since it's badly formed XML and I can't find it in the source.
+
+Look in cs_prefs.c where it says:
+// Read global preferences into the global_prefs structure.
+// 1) read the override file to get venue in case it's there
+// 2) read global_prefs.xml
+// 3) read the override file again
+//
+// This is called:
+// - on startup
+// - on completion of a scheduler or AMS RPC, if they sent prefs
+// - in response to read_global_prefs_override GUI RPC
+
+It's the choice of venue that is done there. As you can set GPOs for different venues.
