[Building Sakai] Any Ubuntu packages, EC2 images or other easier ways to get a CLE install up and running on Linux?

[Poindexter, David Ray]

I suppose that depends on what you're building and what your goals are. You probably "could" get away with a small instance for testing or demo and not build, but for anything else, yes, you're going to want to customize things and build the source. It's not too scary.

Christian,

Here are my scripts for dummies (like me):

https://source.sakaiproject.org/contrib/csev/trunk/scripts/sakai-full/

There is a README and a EC2 README, and an ubuntu script to grab dependencies.

Thanks!  Is there much value in building Sakai from source?

Correct me if I'm wrong but hard drive space is so cheap I'm guessing most people
would prefer to just download the standard binaries for everything to keep
things as simple as possible.

Trying to save room on a server or use "latest greatest" just introduces more potential
for trouble it seems.
