Hello Vincent,
 
yes, now it is more clear, pretty cool approach to update the documentation 
immediately, really cool!
 
I'm currently travelling by train, so I will check later tonight and will come 
back to xwiki-users.
 
Thanks a lot, best regards
 
Pierre

This is a standard log4j config file. You can simply not define the file
