[Building Sakai] [sakai-pmc] RSS portlet now part of Sakai trunk

[Steve Swinsburg]

Since the branch for Sakai 10 has been created before this was committed, I am happy for this to stay in trunk (or experimental, but it doesn’t make much difference, just less exposure), with the proviso that the code stays in github. 

I oppose moving the code to SVN, especially given the current climate around moving the entire source to github in the very near future anyway (mid this year has been mentioned). I do not wish to, nor have the time to, maintain two copies of the code just to satisfy a codebase purity argument. 

regards,
Steve
