[sakai-pmc] [Building Sakai] Re-proposing - Edia skin manager for Sakai 10

Wed Dec 18 05:48:50 PST 2013

* Precondition sounds like it is met.

* Incubation, at this point, sounds optional.

* Voting does not seem required.

Therefore, please provide comments by Friday, Dec 20 for a final 
decision on this proposal.

Thanks,
Neal

> skin-manager trunk.  We leave the rest in contrib.  The tags can't be

> would leave the branch code behind as well and untouched as regards 
> the license. (2.4.x to 2.7.x; SM1-SM7).  Yes, if trunk history is 
> retained checking out an earlier revision would unmask the old 
> license.  If this is a concern, then leave the history behind by 
> performing an svn export of skin manager trunk and start with a clean 
> directory tree.
