Fwd: Need comments on JEP-158: Unified JVM Logging

[Martijn Verburg]

Hi all,

Here's another JEP that's worth reading and commenting on.  OpenJDK has
always been weak in the Serviceability department and this is one of
several steps to improve that!  Please see the link below and send your
comments back to serviceability-dev at openjdk.java.net

Cheers,
Martijn

Hi all
Please help me review this updated version of the JEP-158 Unified JVM
Logging that was pushed today to the JEP repository.

Since the service posting the JEPs to http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/ site
seems to be non working at the moment I am linking directly to the HG
repository instead.

The updated JEP can be found here in raw markdown format:
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jep/jeps/file/b04a394c4df4/jep-158.md

Primarily I would like to have feedback on the overall functionality scope,
the logging API and the command line argument format. All type of comments
are of course welcome, but I would like to stay away from any
implementation specifics at this point.

I have a POC implementation which is nearly feature complete up and running
and it looks good so far.
