David Johle commented on LOG4J2-63:
-----------------------------------

I was always a supporter of Properties style syntax for log4j 1.x as I disliked 
the XML configs I had been exposed to, however I must say that the improvements 
made in the schema for log4j2 make the XML a lot easier to work with than 
before.  Also, some of the new features would be a lot harder/more confusing to 
implement in Properties format.

And lastly, it's quite easy to lint your configs since the XML can be validated 
with standardized tools -- a bonus which can save some runtime headaches, which 
is always A Good Thing(tm) when dealing with production systems!

> configuration of Log4J 2 over the old fashioned properties file 
> (log4j.properties). It is the easiest understandable config format.
