As I mentioned in my earlier email, I used the EnhancedPatternLayout that is in the experimental branch as a starting point. I changed the name back to PatternLayout and made that a plugin and made all the converters plugins. I also modified a couple of the converters where it was neeed. > > Do you have or want to suggest a code name for this submission?

It isn't like anyone is going to confuse this for a releasable code base being in a branch named "EXPERIMENTAL" and in a subdirectory named ralph. If it does get pulled up to a real dev branch then we won't have to go through the busy work of package renaming. Referencing it in emails as "Ralph's Log4j2" vs "Curt's Log4j2" should be enough to avoid any confusion. And hopefully, the experimentation phase won't last too long before creating a common code base (although I'd still expect people to fork that while they try new things - this is one of the areas where using github would really help).
