JSR-168 Edit and Help Mode

Did some QA of the Sakai JSR-168 portlet support with Marcus Chirstie and Marlon Pierce of Indiana Unviersity. Found a bug and decided that we needed Help and Edit mode support. Off goes two solid hacking days :)

But code yeilds eventually and I just committed the stuff. Interestingly - this makes my todo list for 168 realy short - and just in time for code freeze.

To test, do this

check out a copy of sakai

The also check out the portlets into the source directory:

svn co https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn//portlet/trunk/ portlet

and them compile it .

The Sakai Test Portlet shows up in the site list.

TODO:

Re-Enable Sakai API support in portlets when Pluto 1.1.2 is released
Why to we register too many times?
reference/docs/architecture - Update
Fix going to a URL before we are logged in...
Fix look and feel of edit button
