[Building Sakai] Patching site info to hide user IDs from students

Tue Mar 26 10:40:48 PDT 2013

Thank you John! I'll take a look at that if we decide to get rid of our 
kernel modifications for the new permission.  Since I've already merged 
the old code we might stick with that for now.

And I'll try a little harder in the future to see if there are better 
ways of doing things before jumping into merging our 2.8.1 patches ;)

Curtis.
