Subject: Comparing JSR47 with log4J

Dear expert group,

I just read this comparison between JSR47 and log4j and
I find it hard to believe that your approach is significantly
better, faster and more convenient to use.
And I'm not sure why Sun is duplicating an effort that
is already a de-facto standard for many developers.

I'm asking you to reconsider the direction you are taking with JSR47 or
at least comment on the critique found here (http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/docs/index.html) and provide solutions
for the obvious performance problems and missing functionality.

Thanks a lot for reading and good luck in your effort,
  Jochen Bedersdorfer
