Yes but the logging applies to the current release too and people are asking 
about it. Is the web page build quite an intensive process? I don't want to 
labour on the point, I just think documentation should be a priority, not a 
per-Tomcat-build thing.

Well it's something but it doesn't apply to Tomcat directly. The docs are 
wrapped up in jakarta-catalina in webapps folder. I had to download nearly 
everything to find that out. he jakarta-site2 is misleading ... (this site it 
says). My point again is this scattering of information rather than a 
definitive Tomcat resource. People don't want to scout the web piecing together 
information on how to get a product up and going imo.
