Here's a couple of hints:

Isn't that already provided by __PACKAGE__?

Hmm, any reason why you aren't simply using Log4perl's get_logger()?

Just to clarify: Is this your application or your logger class
hierarchy? If the former, it shouldn't be a subclass of Logger. If the
latter, you probably want to use L4p's get_logger() and pass it the
category you want.

What's the problem you're trying to solve there?
