[Building Sakai] Google scholar. Missing "Import into Sakai"

Barring the possibility that the server was down temporarily at some other time since 6:44 p.m. PDT Monday, May 15 and that google happened to crawl the file at that time, it seems like everything is working as expected from the sakai end of things, so I'd guess the next step is to contact google.  Jon Dunn is the sakai liaison to google, so that call would be his.

(To either retain the old data on failure or schedule a recheck) I had setup a process at Michigan that would verify every 5 minutes if this file existed, though since I've left I don't know if this system is still running.
