[Building Sakai] Official photos from a folder in Roster/Profile2

[Steve Swinsburg]

Hi Daniel,

File system storage is not supported in profile2, however Oxford have just filed this Jira, which will allow you to import them, if you can get a URL to them. 

https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/PRFL-740

So with this feature, you could make the images web accessible temporarily, then import them into profile2.

Cheers,
Steve
