[Building Sakai] Building Sakai on MacOS X Server

[Stephen Swinsburg]

Sure. I'm still away though. After the previous issues I thought  
someone may have already updated the poms. I'll do it when I get back  
in a few days if no one else gets to it first.

One point I'd like to raise, if the issue is that the scope cannot be  
inherited from the project's main pom in Maven 2.0.6, ie from the  
dependencyManagement block, and if this is a bug in Maven, then we  
need to vote to use a newer Maven version and not support workarounds  
for bugs. I'm not sure if it is a bug in the old versions or a feature  
from the later versions (and can't look it up, the net connection here  
is too dodgy).

+1 for a vote!

cheers,
Steve
