[Building Sakai] Abundance of pom.xml files in 2.9

[Steve Swinsburg]

Hi Mike

You are probably best taking the relevant -all branch or tag and forgetting about the binary indies, which are what the deploy poms do. Then the source layout is the same as what you are used to. Note that some services are now in edu-services and in common. 

Cheers

Will test that theory in the a.m.
