[Building Sakai] Sakai and Java/Tomcat

[Steve Swinsburg]

Hi Gerwood,

So far, building Sakai with Java 1.6 seems ok, however Tomcat 6  
support needs some more time and testing spent on it.

I ran some tests and wrote an article with my finding for both Java  
1.6 and Tomcat 6 here:
http://steve-on-sakai.blogspot.com/2009/04/sakai-with-java-6-and-tomcat-6.html

These preliminary tests are by no means exhaustive, but are indicative  
that it does seem to work ok.

The switch to Java 1.6 (since Java 1.5 is soon to be EOL) was also  
discussed here:

cheers,
