I understand your reaction. At the same time, please note that Yoav is a well-respected and persistent log4j contributor.
Let me take this opportunity to remind us of Apache's tradition for encouraging everyone to freely express their views, questions, ideas or criticisms and especially the latter. This is one reason why Apache is such a special place. Let us enjoy and cherish this privilege, because exceptional it truly is.
In light of the above, please consider a -1 (outside of a voting process) as just an opinion deserving the same consideration as any other opinion.

IMHO, You have completely misundertood the goals of this thread, review the rest of the thread for Ceki's simple and creative solution to my question. I never suggested that I was making a feature request for developers to implement greater functionality in log4j, certainly nothing people should feel they have to vote on. If I were, then I'd be making a feature request, not asking question on a users list.
What I was seeking, was interest and discussion on an alternate way to structure my logging configuration for my particular project. Something a *users* list should be trying to foster. This is just a *discussion* about hierarchical logging configuration ideas. Don't be so quick to snuff out discussing ideas on a user list by throwing *-1's* around.
IMHO, Log4J should be interested in promoting discussion about the configuration solutions that can be applied to the product, and expecially on the users list where others can search, reference and find them. I also think using voting on users questions like this is not very polite. Voting is really more appropriate for developers lists where the majority of the members actually have a stake (and probibly karma) in the direction the project goes in and are discussing making changes to the product.
Again, just my humble opinion. -Mark

Howdy, IMHO that's too complicated to be worth it. There are too many possibilities for confusion. The simpler we can make configuration, the better. -1 on that.
