[kepler-dev] ptII to maven work

[Tristan King]

Just a quick update on this. I've gotten maven running ptolemy II now.
It involved removing $CLASSPATH from line 86 of
ptolemy/vergil/kernel/attributes/ImageAttribute.java since i couldn't figure
out how to set the value for $CLASSPATH. I also updated my make target to
copy images and config files and other resources to the correct place in the
maven source hierarchy.

I've tested it from scratch on both linux and mac os x, and they both run
exactly the same as ./bin/vergil does.

Things that still need to be figured out:
* a lot of the ptolemy source files that depend on sun jars (i.e. jms, j3d,
etc) that aren't distributed with ptolemy are still being copied into the
maven project. This causes headaches as these dependencies have to initially
be installed manually (due to sun's licensing).

Things I want to do from here:
* Separate the actor libraries out into separate projects. especially the
ones with vendor dependencies.

Enjoy
