I'm planning to build a "beta 7" this afternoon, unless there are outstanding
problems that should really be fixed first. If no critical bugs in beta 7 are
found, I will propose it to the TOMCAT-DEV list as the release candidate for 3.2
final.

You would need to run under a servlet container that supports this (such as
WebLogic's own), rather than Tomcat, to access these values using the technique
outlined in the J2EE documentation. In Tomcat 4.0 we're in the process of adding
support for such initial contexts -- but it's not there in 3.1 or 3.2.
