[Building Sakai] 2.7 Install

[Steve Swinsburg]

Hi,

There is no real reason not to be using a version of Maven lower than 2.2.1. 2.0.10 is over a year old and the 2.0 series is only recommended for projects that need to run on JDK 1.4. As time goes on, Sakai will no doubt be moving forward with Maven version. I've been using 2.2.1 for the past 6 months for Sakai 2.5 and up.

It's very simple to upgrade, heres a guide for OS X:

Will be very similar for Linux.

cheers,
Steve
