It seems you have a point there, %X{propname} creates the same output as 
%properties{propname} 

The javadoc on those to conversion patterns though suggests that this are two 
different patterns:

_X_  -- Used to output _the MDC_ (mapped diagnostic context) associated with 
_the thread_ that generated the logging event...

_properties_  -- Used to output _the Properties_ associated with the _logging 
event_...

This is at best misleading and imo rather a bug in the documentation.

@All: Thanks for your help :-)

I may be off on some nuance, but I believe %properties is a synonym for %x in 
the same way that %logger is a synonym for %c.
