I noticed that you removed the protected closeWriter method. This need

One use case for this would be to force roll-over of files at
particular times. However, if that is the only use case there might be
simpler approach within the RFA framework.
Could you elaborate on other use cases that you are wanting to support?

Hi All,
On a similar note, HouseKeepingFileAppender might be better done as a

I agree that LoggingEvent should be serial-compatible with previous

If Chainsaw were to have its own release cycle, we would release a lot
