Subject: Appeal to Tomcat developers


Dear Tomcat developers,

this is a humble appeal.
I know I have in the past been "over the top" on this subject, and for that I apologise.

The appeal is about Tomcat logging.

I will venture a few risky bets :
1) for every Tomcat used in a development context, there are 100 used in a production environment
2) for every Tomcat developer, there are 1000 Tomcat users
3) for at least 900 out of these 1000 Tomcat users, the current way to configure/manage Tomcat logging is too difficult to understand

BTW Andre, its not just a TC thing, its the whole Java logging thing, its unduely complex, so I actually think TC inhereted Java's logging history. If you know how to make a little singleton, its really is not difficult adding a little logging to your servlets, with a tiny little 30 line class.
That also displays as a HTML page... thats what we do...
