Many of the Tomcat components seem to need the concept of a "Catalina
Home". But this is not to say, that a majority of the components allow
for overrides to particular directory structures and locations. So
without looking at the code, I would probably say its doable...but this
is speculation.

I don't have any problems with your approach. But I also am not the
biggest fan fo the var/catalina structure that Tomcat wants Geronimo
to have. Is there some way to get Tomcat to use our directories
directly (log, work, whatever) instead of doing everything under a
Catalina directory?

I now have servers for jetty and for tomcat built using the packaging
and assembly plugins. For the second time I've spent 2 days trying to
figure out why tomcat is broken only to realize that some required
configuration files are missing. The server built in modules/assembly
copies the files from the tomcat module, whereas I have simply included
them in the geronimo-tomcat-j2ee assembly. Both of these solutions are
really unsatisfactory.
How about writing a gbean that copies resources out of its classpath
and into a specified location (in var)? This would let us package
these files in the geronimo-tomcat car so they would be available for
any tomcat server. Can anyone see a problem with this approach?
