I'm not sure I understand "no posts at all", there are severals pages of matches if you search the log4j-dev archives for "log4j 2.0". Making sense of all the posts is more the problem. The JIRA tracker for log4j2 has captured some potential design goals at http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2. Here are some posts to start as a reading list for the backstory (reverse chronological order): http://marc.info/?l=log4j-user&m=125725041724346&w=2 http://marc.info/?t=122830451800001&r=1&w=2 http://marc.info/?t=121385743100001&r=1&w=2 http://marc.info/?t=121094847000005&r=1&w=2 That should be enough to get started as they should contain links to older articles. I'll continue some thoughts after lunch. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
