Please make the following configuration changes so releases into production are simpler
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: AMQ-1604
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-1604
             Project: ActiveMQ
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Broker
    Affects Versions: 5.0.0, 4.1.1, 4.1.0, 4.0.2
         Environment: Linux
            Reporter: Denis Abramov
            Priority: Minor



(1) Please rename the activemq-all-<version>.jar to just activemq-all.jar. It will make it easier for users to switch version. We would generally put the activemq release on a shared drive and change the pointer "prod", "dev" or "staging" to point to the new directory. It would be nice if the activemq-all.jar was present in all releases so the link would be the only thing I would need to change.

(2) Please change the log4j appender:
log4j.appender.out.file=${activemq.base}/data/activemq.log 
Oftentimes activemq is in a protected directory on a network drive (${activemq.base}/) so many machines can use it. It would be better if the log file would log to /tmp  or something else the user can configure. Maybe it can be configured in the activemq.xml file? (I always have to change this every time we upgrade to a new version)
