Hi developers
As a jakarta tomcat user I began wondering why ROOT folder is treated a
special case. I'm sure there is probably a good reason why it is so, but
I seem to be unable to figure it out. I have a probably misguided idea
that ROOT could be treated like any other webapp and that making it
docRoot in Tomcat distribution could just be a configuration issue. From
a short glance at source it seems that this could even save a few lines
of code. I am sure I am probably missing something obvious, please
enlighten me.

Kind regards
Jan H. Hansen

P.S. This is my first post to this mailing list I hope I haven't made
any gross violations of netiqette, if I have please accept my sincere
apology in advance.
