Hi Steve,

What path are you looking at?

1) When I go to the overall release notes page - https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/DOC/Sakai+CLE+2.9+release+notes

2) Then find "installing" and expand it's display

3) Then click on "Sakai CLE 2.9 install guide (source)" 

I'm seeing Tomcat 7, Maven 3, etc. 

Thanks,
Neal

You don't need a maven settings file, nor to help people configure tomcat with the sub standard index.html file in the ROOT webapp, or to show them how to install Tomcat as a service, or even the various flags for Maven. That's all just junk that gets in the way and makes us look like amateurs. If people want that stuff they can look up the up to date info elsewhere.
