Description

log4j 2.0 should avoid implementing its own configuration framework in preference to being compatible with commonly used configuration frameworks and services. Compatibility with existing log4j 1.2 configuration files might be accomplished by XSLT transforms that convert the legacy format into the equivalent with the selected configuration framework. log4j 2.0 should be readily configurable with JMX and a JMX centric design for configuration may be desirable.
