[Building Sakai] Sitebrowser description

[Prakash, Savitha]

Daniel,
This patch is already there in the trunk and is related to SAK-15823. You might have to explicitly mention in the jira SAK-13149, where you have attached the patch, that this patch is duplicate and will serve for 2.5.3. As this might confuse others that its a different fix. You can include the version 2.5.3 in the title of your patch just to make it clear.

Thanks,
Savitha

Hi, Savitha.

These steps that you gave me a few days ago are for a different version
of Sakai of the one we have here (2.5.3) so I have modified them and I
have created a patch in the JIRA
http://bugs.sakaiproject.org/jira/browse/SAK-13149 to solve the problem
described there.

I'm a newcomer in Sakai programming, so I don't know if my patch could
be done better than is, but it solves the problem.

Thanks and regards.
