perfsonar development work

[Roman Lapacz <>]

Hi, I've made small change which, in case of SQL MA, is removing 
libs-download-sqlma.xml file and moving its content to build-sqlma.xml 
file (two import commands). Now to download the libraries required by 
SQL MA the following command must be executed (-f parameter has changed)

$PERFSONAR/ant> ant -f build-sqlma.xml libs-sqlma

I've made described changes for SQL MA, RRD MA and LS.

>      http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/xalan/xalan/2.7.0/xalan-2.7.0.pom
>  value of elements groupId, artifactId and version must be used in Ant 
> script to specify that library
>
> * in case of rrdjtool library its meta file can be found here:
>    
> http://wiki.perfsonar.net/services/jar-repository/rrdjtool/rrdjtool/1.0/rrdjtool-1.0.pom 
>
>
> - little different classpath in $PERFSONAR/ant/build-sqlma.xml which 
> now points $PERFSONAR/lib/repository instead of $PERFSONAR/lib
>
> - change of library paths for copy and remove operations while 
> deploying and undeploying the service
>
>
> I didn't want to harm existing things for your services so I created 
> axis-deploy-targets-2.xml and replaced import statement of 
> axis-deploy-targets with it in $PERFSONAR/ant/build-sqlma.xml. But 
> next week I would like to remove jars from lib directory and old
