Thanks, Anthony!
I've only tested the build so far, but I've noticed a couple of things:

First, entitybroker, polls, and emailtemplateservice are listed twice in svn:externals. The first entry has the wrong tag (sakai-2.6.2). The second one is correct. On my subversion at least, it seems to use only the second (correct) URL, but it hits it twice during checkout, the second time around printing no listing since it's already checked out, which is a little disturbing to see, and then confusing when the files are there despite the seemingly empty checkout. So this one doesn't break anything, but it is confusing.

Second, the Sakai version listed in the <parent> section of the pom.xml files for entitybroker and polls are wrong. They specify 2.6.1, with the result that they pull in the 1.0.12 kernel instead of 1.0.13. Changing it to 2.6.2 seems to fix this.

Thanks for your efforts in getting this release finalized!
