I find it difficult to believe that anybody, either at Sun or in the developer community generally, thinks this makes Java somehow more manageable or operable. Even if we only focus on the client side, it's like a fugue upon stupidity. Why can't jconsole just have -v -vv and -vvv like every other program, instead of having to specify a ridiculous logging.properties file with exactly the same effect? And that is to say nothing of the server side, which is baroque in the extreme. After all that work, you get to have a tomcat that doesn't exit! Absurd!
