I don''t remember clearly what Matz or someone call this but,
at least I don''t want to call it "std" lib. Though lib/logger.rb will be
released with ruby, it is not standardized. Without any standardization
process (I don''t know this word is correct English word), I only add a
file to /src/ruby/lib for soap4r. Word "bundled lib" sounds suitable
for me.

I think log4r could be "bundled lib", too. There''s no "standard" logger
lib for ruby for now.
lib/logger.rb is enough for my logging usage for now
so I don''t have any opinion about bundling it. Since no log
inheritance and build-in remote logging feature in lib/logger.rb,
I believe there should be many developers who want to use
log4r without installing it by oneself.
Make an appeal to matz how it useful, same as REXML, YAML
and so on.
