Bumping up the discussion thread. Recently, I updated the document of KIP-653: Upgrade log4j to log4j2 <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-653%3A+Upgrade+log4j+to+log4j2> (accepted) and KIP-719: Add Log4J2 Appender <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-719%3A+Add+Log4J2+Appender> (under discussion) reflecting the recent changes to our codebase. Especially:
1. KIP-653 document <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-653%3A+Upgrade+log4j+to+log4j2> now explains which modules will be migrated and why. 2. KIP-719 document <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-719%3A+Add+Log4J2+Appender> now explains not only the log4j2-appender plan but also upgrading the omitted modules in KIP-653 into log4j2. As you can see here, those two KIPs are the different parts of the same problem. I believe the community will have a good grasp on why both KIPs are best if released altogether. I will open the voting thread now, and please leave a vote if you are interested in this issue.
