[Building Sakai] Custom profile fields

[Steve Swinsburg]

Yep there is an outstanding Jira for this,  and certainly a good one to do. Basically it is just re-doing the backend for the profile info and adding some config for the fields to display. If someone wants to tackle I can walk you through what needs to be done, I estimate a weeks effort. 

Cheers
Steve

However creating a patch that will add some fields and removes others probably won't be merged with the community code because it would be a very institution specific patch (ie not generic). Still we prefer not to create our own local fork of the tool.
