Purpose
Part of the Sakai 2.2 release was the re-organization of the source tree. Besides doing away with the "legacy" classification of many of the framework services, it allows tools and services to be easily grouped into new distributions using the subversion externals feature.
The Sakai Training Environment was created to be a minimal, but fairly complete Sakai development environment to support hands-on, code development workshops. It is the successor to the Sakai Kernel Bundle that has been used successfully in several workshops during 2005 and 2006.
Composition
The Sakai Training environment is intended to be a solid development framework that allows non-toy Sakai tools to be built. Since the emphasis is on development, all of the high level tools and the Charon portal are not included in this distribution. Some of the support tools like login and admin are included to make some tasks simpler.
The Sakai Training distribution (https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn/sakai/branches/sakai_training/) currently consists of the following modules:
