Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-2147:
-------------------------------------
The Apache Logging project doesn't have a preference for the format of the
configuration file. You can safely use any of the supported types. I personally
prefer xml as I find it the most readable. Others prefer JSON or YAML. Some
users really like properties files so we support that too.
