Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-2129:
-------------------------------------
Have you found any documentation on why the two "uses" declarations are
necessary? All I could find is that uses is required to name the class used by
the ServiceLoader. Not that there is anything wrong with your fix but I am
wondering why it is needed.
