[Building Sakai] Implement CourseManagementService ???

[John Bush]

You don't necessarily need to implement the CourseManagementService.   
The CourseManagementService is useful if you want instructors or  
admins to have flexibility in how you map courses into sites.  If you  
want to enforce a strict mapping, you can simply provision the sites  
and enrollments yourself using a quartz job or web services.  For  
example, your external system could dump its notion of course,  
enrollments, even users into files which are then read by a quartz job  
that leverages the Sakai api's to create the sites, memberships, and  
users as you see fit.   Most of our clients do things this way, only a  
few need the power of the CourseManagementService.
