Hello Henning,

Robert Burrell Donkin kindly informed of the existence of your
discussion.

Henning, since you mentioned me by name in your last message, allow me
to respond. If my memory serves me correctly, I have only once
proposed Tomcat to bundle log4j. It was quite a few years ago. Since
then, I have been careful to stay away from that topic.

Being out of the limelight actually helped us to develop log4j without
all the pressure associated with excessive public attention. So it
would be nice to have Tomcat officially adopt log4j, but maybe not
just yet.

Best regards,
