[Building Sakai] disable sakai_news tool to registered users

Hi, 

There are a couple of options:

If you want to hide them from being added to sites via Site Info > Edit Tools, add them to the stealthTools property in sakai.properties. Admin users will still be able to add them.

If you want to hide them in existing sites so that only maintainers can see them after they have been added , use Site Info > Page order and turn off the light bulb.

If you want to make them only available to users with a certain permission, and have it set server wide, you can adjust the tool registration and add the functions.require element, eg:
<configuration name="functions.require" value="content.read"/>

cheers,
Steve
