Regarding 3.0, I think it's going to be a bit of an image problem to get
there -- a little uphill battle. Right now the entire website is branded as
a "2" site.... to separate it from the decades long fandom of the 1.x site.
I am not blaming anyone for that decision. It was necessary to
differentiate 2.x from 1.x....

But it does paint the project a bit into the corner going forward. IMO, you
wouldn't want 3.x to be so completely different in its documentation, would
you? Even right now, if you go to the site, it really is "Apache Log4j 2"
and not simply "Apache Log4j" in the page. Do you see what I am trying to
say?

I know this is unsolicited advice, but I just want to throw my opinion out
there to help planning the future. Before you guys try 3.0, take some time
to eliminate the hard barrier between 1.x/2.x in your website. Make it just
one so that 3.x documentation naturally fits in.

Cheers,
Paul
