[Building Sakai] I want to develop a new SAKAI 2.7.0 tool with JSF or JSP technology

[Aaron Zeckoski]

I think your java files need to go under src/main/java or they will
not be compiled. You can only put JSP files in the location you are
using.
You will need to become familiar with the basics of java webapp
development before you attempt to write a Sakai tool/plugin or I think
you will find it very difficult.

Some of these links should help but you need to be very familiar with
the fundamentals of java web apps before you attempt to do Sakai
development. Note that new versions of Sakai use maven 2 so when you
are looking at stuff make sure you look at maven 2 and not maven 1
instructions.
