As a log4j user I'd prefer a separate jar for Juli (so that I can remove her
easily :).  I'm pretty agnostic as to including it in the default
tomcat-5.5.x.tar.gz or as tomcat-logging.tar.gz.  In the second case, it
should be enough to have tomcat-juli.jar.  It's easy enough to have
catalina.sh/bat look to see if tomcat-juli.jar is in bin and add
the -Dj.u.l.m= to the JAVA_OPTS.

I haven't had time to look at it in detail, but from what I have looked at
Juli looks nice.
