Thanks for solving out first Issue for me. However the thing which stopped me to move for alpha7 or greater is org.apache.log4j.rolling.RollingFileAppender is a final class in them and hence is not extensible. Its good enough for me if some one can make it extensible in alpha -8, gives me all reasons to move for alpha 8 !!
The behavior of o.a.l.rolling.RollingFileAppender is customizable by replacing the triggering policy and rolling policy objects. Those are the anticipated extension points. Please explain what type of behavior change you are trying to achieve. If they can't be accomplished through the either the triggering policy or rolling policy, then we can consider modifying TriggeringPolicy or RollingPolicy, provide yet another extension point or (unlikely) removing the final keyword.
For background on why final is our friend, see items 14 and 15 in "Effective Java".
