+1.
I would enforce saying that it will be good to follow the Apache
way in distrib like Redhat / Mandrake :
config : /etc/httpd/conf
with ssl.crl, ssl.crt, ssl.csr, ssl.key, ssl.prm subdirs
static datas: /home/httpd/html and /home/httpd/html/icons
the new dirs in RHL 7.0 is /var/www/html and /var/www/icons
cgi-datas: /home/httpd/cgi-bin
the new dir in RHL 7.0 is /var/www/cgi-bin
execs: /usr/bin
ie htpasswd
root/admin restricted execs: /usr/sbin
ie httpd
libraries: /usr/lib/apache
I'll be for something like that for TC 3.3 =>
/etc/tomcat/conf with mod_jk.conf, server.xml, ....
/home/tomcat or /var/tomcat for webapps ie /home/tomcat/webapps/examples
(may be just /home/tomcat/examples)
/usr/bin/ or /usr/sbin for tomcat, jspc (depend if we want tomcat run by
root/everybody)
/usr/lib/tomcat with the split proposed by costin ie container, webapps,
common)
