If has been a frequently requested feature, but definitely non- obvious to implement on top of the existing org.apache.log4j.DRFA since the user-specified date pattern makes it difficult to determine the corresponding date from the file name when the pattern omitted significant parts of the date and to determine the minimum number of intervals that would result in an arbitrary file name.

I started some work on a MultiFileAppender and this scenario was one of its use cases, but the work stalled around ApacheCON and before there was anything usable. I hope to get back to it.
