Actually my point was that we can do few things now, with minimal impact on the release. At least changing util's Log to default to commons logging - the line is just commented out right now. This will make 4.1 work with only 2 loggers instead of 3 ( well, without counting jasper ). And including log4j.jar in the release - another easy one ( otherwise commons-logging will not work very well except on 1.4 ). After 4.1.0 - it's quite easy to change Logger to default to commons-logging, and same for jasper ( after all they are supposed to be pluggable interfaces :-). In time the code can start using c-l directly, but with this changes we get every log (indirectly ) going to c-l. Then there's a small config change, i.e. removing any explicit Logger from server.xml ( both 3.3 and 4.1 ), and adding a sample log4j.properties and jdk1.4 logging.properties config. What about this: after you tag the tree, I'll make the changes and see how it works. If you're happy, we can merge this to the release branch. ( I'll still wait for Larry, Bill and the others about 3.3 logging, since the switch will make all logs go to c-l in 3.3, the Log interface is used there heavily ).
