[Building Sakai] Moving YAFT and CLOG to github

If, like Anthony states, github can rewire the project nesting later, then
I'll go ahead and just create a couple of projects under my account. I'll
give those svn2git utils a try as well. I'd like to get the history in
rather than just leave it in SVN. I'll leave the SVN projects intact and
mark them as deprecated somehow.

Thanks for all the replies.

Cheers,
Adrian.
