Description

It may or may not be obvious to people how to configure log4j for their app without breaking geronimo's log setup. We can easily provide a gbean that reads a property file, removes stuff that applies to global logging, and feeds the rest to log4j. Then people can supply a properties file for their apps log4j configuration, either in the classpath or var/<somewhere>.
