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

[Bryan Holladay]

Sakai 3 was changed to Sakai OAE (Open Academic Environment) and Sakai CLE
(Collaborative Learning Environment) is the one that's in a 2.x state.  This
is to distinguish the fact that Sakai OAE isn't a replacement for Sakai CLE.

All the information given to you was for Sakai CLE.  If you're planning on
using CLE, then you should develop for it.
