[Building Sakai] Simple Extension to Sakai

[ewendland]

Hi,

I want to build a super simple extension to Sakai - I would like to use the
EventTrackingService to be able to trap various events in Sakai and report
them to another external application via a web service call to that
application.  

My problem is getting something that compiles within the Sakai project
framework.  I have downloaded Sakai 2.7.1, and build it with all the Maven
hoo-hah etc.  I have a nice Sakai instance running.  I then attempted to get
some of the example code to build and that is where I am failing.  I always
have the wrong version of one thing or another.  I am not experienced with
Maven so I am having trouble converting the examples' Maven 1 scripts to
Maven 2 and when I google or look at the Wiki I get conflicting advice.

This extension does not need a UI or anything fancy.   Does anyone have any
advice on how to get the simplest jar in the world to build in Sakai? 
Perhaps an example with no Spring/Wicket/JSF and that uses Maven2?

Thanks in advance for any help.
