[Building Sakai] state of repositories; sharing content

[John Norman]

I believe this is within scope for the OpenCast Matterhorn project  
Year 1 deliverables. I am not sure if the final design is known today,  
but the project is aiming to complete the first round of deliverables  
in 12 months. Is that fast enough?

JCR should be there from 2.5 I think. If you decide to go ahead with  
an interim solution, Cambridge would probably want to offer some low  
level of help as we have similar use cases.
