This is the plan that Piotr and I came up with one addition (1c): 1. Branch 2.x 1.a. Drop module log4j-mongodb3 1.b. Add module log4j-mongodb (no number) that contains one class that instantiates the log4j-mongodb4 provider. XML element is MongoDb. 1.c. Deprecate module log4j-mongodb4 in favor of log4j-mongodb
2. Branch main 2.a. Rename module log4j-mongodb4 to module log4j-mongodb 2.b. Rename XML element MongoDb4 to MongoDb Gary On 2024/04/17 19:49:40 "Piotr P.
