[Deploying Sakai] sakai 2.7.0 source installation in ubuntu 10.04.1

[Mike De Simone]

I look at it like this:  maven options (MAVEN_OPTS and M2_HOME) are for
compile-time and so seem naturally to go into /etc/profile or
$HOME/.bash_profile.  And JAVA_HOME and the PATH updates for maven/bin and
java/bin also are useful there.

JAVA_OPTS are for when tomcat is starting up and to me naturally belong in
setenv.sh.  Perhaps a default set is ok to have in the global settings
though.

CATALINA_HOME is automatically set by catalina.sh and so I usually don't
bother setting that on a user-level basis in case I have
multiple tomcats I'm testing with.


Thanks,
