I object to adding trace, and think that project leads disagreeing with users and rejecting proposals is reasonable. For better or worse, Sun has had the same attitude about Java and in some ways it has been beneficial to the community. Because I already have trouble choosing INFO over WARN, WARN over ERROR, and some cases DEBUG over INFO, I think TRACE adds more trouble. In the long term, users may come to regret having a choice... But I suppose it's something one has to learn independently. In JBoss, they use TRACE exclusively in a lot of files, and DEBUG sparingly. So to do any serious debugging TRACE must be enabled, and I cannot conceive of any use case for leaving DEBUG on for debugging purposes. I don't think logging domains is a really intuitive feature, it sort of adds a 3rd dimension to configuring and is hard to conceptualize. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
