Ouch. I didn't see that one coming. :-) I was kind of hoping to include LOG4J2-1010 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1010>, LOG4J2-1447 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1447> and LOG4J2-1349 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1349> in the 2.7 release. But it's okay, I can wait until 2.8. The tickets I mentioned are fairly big changes and even though I think I am almost done with the work I don't want to rush and overlook anything. So if we want to do a 2.7 release now that is fine.
Let me know if I can help with the stackwalker stuff. I read this chain ( http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/jigsaw-dev/2016-July/008597.html), has there been any additional communication? The idea of getting caller info on every method call in AbstractLogger, on the face of it, does not sound realistic, but then, I haven't tried it.
