I can't see an API for fetching the category of a logger. Is there a

Sorry for the long wait on this, somehow your email got stuck in spam
quarantaine.

You're right, there's currently no accessor for a logger's category,
I've added one just now:

To work around the limitation, you can use $logger->{category} till it
rolls out with the next release.

Thanks for bringing this issue to my attention.

In particular, I'd like to make a "daughter" logger from an existing one.  i.e. 
given

 my $logger = get_logger("com.sadinoff.hello");


. . .

I'd like to say

   my $subLogger = $logger->get_daughter_logger("foobar")

...and have the category be "com.sadinoff.hello.foobar".

I thought maybe I'd do

   get_logger($logger->getCategory() . ".foobar")

..but I don't see anything like either method above.  I *could* just
fetch $logger->{category}, but I doubt that would be supported.
