Here's how I was taught:
Lay sail on soft surface (such as grass, if available) or have others help you fold it up.
Remove the battens.
Start from the foot of the sail and make folds, accordian fashion, every foot or so, until you get to the top. It should now look like a long strip with a zig-zag running from the head to the clew.
Simply fold, or roll the sail up and put it in the bag.
All the other stuff about water, salt, and sunlight is right on, too.
