[Building Sakai] 2.9.x heads up: merge of new skin, portal changes, and tutorial tool into 2.9.x

[Sam Ottenhoff]

I just completed a very large merge of trunk code from reference/library,
portal, and help into the corresponding 2.9.x branches.  The new skin,
portal changes, and tutorial tool will be released as part of Sakai 2.9.0
beta 07.

The JIRA is here:

  https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-22288

The SVN rev was 110562:

  https://source.sakaiproject.org/viewsvn?view=revision&revision=110562

You can preview the new look by checking out a nightly instance:

  http://nightly2.sakaiproject.org:8082/portal/

To see the tutorial tool in action, create a New Account, and login for the
first time.

If you have a local 2.9.x branch for testing purposes, please update and
let us know if you see any issues.  QA team, I would recommend pushing any
issues regarding the skin or portal and wait for the release of 2.9.0-b07.

If anyone has additional ideas to improve the look-and-feel of Sakai,
please chime in or create JIRA tickets on possible improvements.

Thanks go to many people for the skin re-do effort: Chuck H and the Rutgers
Team, Chuck Severance, Gonzalo, Bryan Holladay, Adrian Fish, and more!
