-= 3.0.0 (2023-06-17)
-
-As the Java ecosystem has evolved, requests have been received from users, and 
the need for improved security has
-become more apparent, changes were necessariy in Log4j's design:
-
-* With the introduction of the Java Platform Module System (JPMS) changes were 
needed to how the various log4j modules
-are packaged. While not every log4j module is now a fully compliant JPMS 
module with its own module-info.java file,
-all the modules likely to be used in a JPMS environment are.
-* Many optional components, such as Scripting, JNDI, JPA and JMS, have been 
moved to their own modules. This makes
-Log4j-core slightly smaller in 3.x and aids in security by not having jars 
with unwanted behaviors present, making
-disabling them via system properties unnecessary.
-* All plugins constructed using Log4j 3.x are now located using Java's 
ServiceLoader. This avoids many of the problems
-users had packaging plugins in "shaded" jars as that technology directly 
supports ServiceLoader. Plugins constructed
-using Log4j 2.x will still function in Log4j 3.x.
-* Log4j's annotation processor has been individually packaged separate from 
Log4j-core and the plugin system it enables.
-For applications using the module path this makes it easier to provide the 
annotation processor since it must be
-explicitly declared in those cases.
-* Log4j 3.x now uses an internal dependency injection framework to allow 
plugins to be injected with instances of
-classes they are dependent on.
-* Many system properties used by Log4j can now be set to apply to a single 
LoggerContext making configuration
-in application frameworks that support multiple applications more flexible.
-* Some deprecated classes have been removed. However, every attempt has been 
made to ensure that user code compiled
-for Log4j 2.x will continue to operate with the Log4j 3.x libraries present 
instead.
-
-== Changes
-
-=== Added
-
-* Allow plugins to be created through more flexible dependency injection 
patterns. (for https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1188[LOG4J2-1188] 
by Matt Sicker)
-* Allow to force LOG4J2 to use TCCL only. (for 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2171[LOG4J2-2171] by 
`rmannibucau`, Ralph Goers)
-* Allow web lookup to access more information. (for 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2523[LOG4J2-2523] by Romain 
Manni-Bucau, Ralph Goers)
-* Allow web lookup of session attributes. (for 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2688[LOG4J2-2688] by Ralph Goers, 
Romain Manni-Bucau)
-* Add support for injecting plugin configuration via builder methods. (for 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2700[LOG4J2-2700] by Matt Sicker)
-* Add scopes API for customizing plugin instance lifecycle. (for 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2852[LOG4J2-2852] by Matt Sicker)
-* Add qualifier annotations for distinguishing instances of the same type. 
(for https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2853[LOG4J2-2853] by Matt 
Sicker)
-* Create standardized dependency injection API. This is supported in several 
plugin categories and other configurable instances previously defined via 
system properties. (for 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2854[LOG4J2-2854] by Matt Sicker)
-* Add conditional annotations to support more declarative binding factory 
bundle classes. (for 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-3300[LOG4J2-3300] by Matt Sicker)
-* Add built-in JSON configuration parser for a useful structured configuration 
file format which only requires the `java.base` module. (for 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-3415[LOG4J2-3415] by Matt Sicker)
-* Add `@Ordered` annotation to support plugin ordering when two or more 
plugins within the same category have the same case-insensitive name. (for 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-857[LOG4J2-857] by Matt Sicker)
-

-* Convert documentation into AsciiDoc format. (for 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1802[LOG4J2-1802] by Matt Sicker)

clarify these classes are to be considered private. (for 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2224[LOG4J2-2224] by Remko Popma)
-* Move time-related classes from `core.util` to `core.time`. Classes
