[Building Sakai] URGENT - Samigo: statistics do not show when random draw from pool is used

[Karen Tsao]

After discussing within the Samigo team, we agree with Sam and Matthew that
this is more like a new feature instead of a bug. So we would like to be
more conservative and decide not to merge to 2.8.x.

For schools want  to have this feature, please follow Sam's instruction
above to merge code from trunk.

Thanks,
Karen
