------------------------------------------------------------
I like this proposal very much!
It does make me wonder though whether it really needs to be a sub-component of
an Appender. I've been thinking about adding a generic worker thread (i.e - an
Executor) that can trigger the file rollover, or other things that need to be
done periodically. If we have such a thing then it might make sense to have a
<Schedule> component in the configuration and add the DeletePolicy (or
DeleteTrigger or whatever) configured there as a scheduled task.
Also, with a name like DeletePolicy I would have expected it to be within the
Policies element?

> DefaultRolloverStrategy max attribute only applies if you have a %i in the
> file pattern. This request is to enhance DefaultRolloverStrategy or another
> appropriate component to allow a max number of files limit to apply across
> days/months/years when a filePattern includes a date pattern.
