Re: MultiplexAppender & Joran

Hi Paul, Sorry it took so long to respond. Given the 1.2.9 situation I don't have the time to look into MultiplexAppender. However, I'll do so after 1.2.9 is released.

RE: [POLL] a 1.2.9 release?

Yoav, Since everyone seems to agree with you, let me just clarify one point. When you say "deprecated Category", you probably mean "deprecate the Category.getRoot and Category.getInstance methods" because given that Logger extends Category, it is impossible to mark the entire Category class as dep
