  These two environment variable names seem to be used interchangeably in
  various installation documents and discussions. Are they in fact
  interchangeable (i.e. I can set one or the other and it doesn't matter
  which)?
  
  
  No, you need to use TOMCAT_HOME for Tomcat 3.x and CATALINA_HOME for
  Tomcat 4.x.
  
  Thanks. The release notes for 4.0b6 contain a number of TOMCAT_HOME
  references.
 
 Correct...  And I found it also in other places: webapps, documentation and
 so on... Should we change them?

All the references to TOMCAT_HOME in Tomcat 4 docs should be changed.

 Also, for the release notes, should we change only the LAST, or all of them?
 

I would suggest *never* changing old release notes -- we want them to
reflect what was actually shipped with that release.  Just add an entry to
the newest release notes doc to say that we updated the docs themselves.

Agreed... So, I'm going to change it in RELEASE_NOTES_B8.txt, leave the old
as is, (mention it in RELEASE notes, of course), then update all docs and
whops! done :)
