That's a great idea! One possible way to do this would be to use those toolkits in an XmlSocketAppender and XmlSocketNode. Then you could keep native serialization intact for performance or bandwidth constrained situations, and still have XML for inter-language or inter-platform communication. Heck, if all the Log4* projects implemented compliant XmlSocketAppenders and XmlSocketNodes, it would make a clean and encapsulated inter-log4-protocol. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
