[Building Sakai] Removing standalone modes for sections/gradebook

[Neal Caidin]

If you would like me to circulate a survey, just let me know. Maybe
specific technical questions like this is a good way to get feedback from
the community. Maybe not.

Either way, I'm here if you would like any support for community
communications.

Cheers,
Neal
