[Building Sakai] Creating new tools: Sakai 2.7 or Sakai 3

[Rafael Morales]

Hello:

My guess is that this also applies to 2.7.x, but what about Sakai 3? We 
are starting on developing support in Sakai for a web service providing 
access to competence-maps, so that we can provide automatic rubric 
generation, activity design support, and other functionalities. We are 
wondering whether it would be better to develop for Sakai 2.7 or Sakai 
3. What would you suggest?

Regards,
Rafael
