Melete 2.4 Upgrades

Working on upgrading from Melete 2.3 – 2.4. The code merges are reasonable, though there’s a pretty good number of small patches that need to go into Sakai from trunk (really wish there was a 2.3.2 that I could just update to instead of having to grab all the individual patches 😉

While I like the fact that Melete has moved from exposing a directory on disk for resource access to proxying all that through ContentHosting, I’m a little concerned about the migration path — the upgrade instructions indicate that migration is done by Melete, but may take a couple of hours — after which Sakai will have to be kicked to reset a sakai.properties value. Definitely going to need to do a fair amount of testing to try to get a scope for how long that is likely to take.
