Nick Williams commented on LOG4J2-362:
--------------------------------------

That diagram is extremely clear and helpful, Remko. Great job! Just a few minor 
corrections:

# API and Core JARs should be "log4j-api-2.0.jar" and "log4j-core-2.0.jar," 
respectively. Not "log4j-2.0-api.jar" and "log4j-2.0-core.jar."
# For the API and Implementation you call them "Log4j-2.0 API" and "Log4j-2.0 
Implementation", but for the legacy API you call it "Log4j 1.0 API." I would 
omit the hyphen there. But I do agree with the placement of the number on the 
name, in this diagram.

After reviewing it, two things occurred to me:

* Should we have the Log4j Tag Library JAR on here somewhere? I'm not 
convinced, just wondering what others think.
* It looks like maybe there's a need for a jul-to-log4j-2.0 module? Having to 
jump through the jul-to-slf4j then slf4j-api then log4j-slf4j-impl-2.0 
artifacts seems like asking for performance issues.

> The log4j-2.0 download archive contains a number of jar files.
> It is not always immediately clear to new users which jar files they should 
> use. A diagram should help to clarify this.
