Gary Gregory commented on LOG4J2-1675:
--------------------------------------
It seems fair to document this the same way and in the sample place where we
document our other source incompatibility. Now we have it under "News" on the
main page at http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/ which feels like the wrong
place. It should be in the release notes for sure.

> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: API
> Affects Versions: 2.6
> Reporter: Joern Huxhorn

> Commit 85a46bbe changed {{SimpleMessage}} and {{ReusableSimpleMessage}} in
> such a way that previously valid code turned invalid because of ambiguous

> logger.debug((Message)new SimpleMessage("simple message"));
> {code}
