I realize this is probably dictated by maintaining compatibility with Log4J, but thought I would mention. The feature where you can configure using properties file or XML file and it creates a watchdog that reconfigures on the fly when the file changes is great. The problem is that the only way to get that behavior is to modify your code to make it call configureAndWatch. So you cannot get this behavior when using the default mechanism to get the configuration file. You really should be able to specify this within the configuration file itself.
