Hi, The other post had a couple of good ideas. The probability of us including a provider-specific appender implementation is in the log4j core is slim. In add-on/contrib modules, the probability is higher, but you'd have to write it, submit it to us (with the appropriate copyright transfer), and probably agree to be the contact address for maintenance on that contributed code.
