[cle-release-team] Sakai Trunk in Transition

[Kirschner, Beth]

I think I know what the problem is with commits - but we'll have to wait until someone with root access can login.

I'll do my best to keep it stable during this time, but if you run into any problems, feel free to ping me. If you want to avoid problems, you should avoid a fresh checkout until I send another message indicating that I'm done. The changes I'm making are to migrate the following tools from contrib to core:
