Which contained:
Ages ago (a year or two?) we decided that we wanted to separate out logging
configuration from environment.xml - is this still desired? The reason is that I am
currently documenting this and want to finalize the implementation prior to doccing it.
The idea was to do something like
SAR-INF/assembly.xml
SAR-INF/config.xml
SAR-INF/environment.xml
SAR-INF/logging.xml
and SAR-INF/logging.xml contains all the configuration for logging. I think it is just
a case of no one getting around to doing it. This was just after Giacomo wrote the
excalibur-logger package and we wanted to harmonize between Cocoon and Phoenix in this
aspect.
However I now have another motivation to do this. Several people have asked for
support for log4j or native JDK1.4 logging configuration formats. So if we went the
above way we could separate out logging we could search for configurations in the
following order;
SAR-INF/environment.xml (for backwards compatability)
SAR-INF/logging.xml (excalibur logger)
SAR-INF/log4j.xml (log4j xml format)
SAR-INF/log4j.properties (log4j properties format)
SAR-INF/log.properties (JDK1.4 format)
That way people who want to use Log4j config files can do it easily.

Summary: Extract logging from environment.xml

Description:
It has been suggested that we should extract logging definition from environment.xml
and place it in a new file
SAR-INF/log.xml
This has been suggested because it mimics behaviour in other containers and logging
can not really be considered to be part of the "environment" of an application.
