Dell - Internal Use - Confidential I just saying we have the ability to work with log4j directly at this point. That should be useful since a custom appender will probably be needed for speed reasons, There are appenders for web services already written and available as freeware

It seems to have gone off into another direction and I'm not sure if there is still a question here someone wants answered. If you are making a proposal for an enhancement to Log4j 2 I am not sure what it is.
