Hi, recently I had a use case where I wanted to use logging in two completely separate parts of the same process. One of them needs to create instances a specific Logger subclass, while the other is fine with the default loggers. I got around the problem of the unique root node by using two Managers (and then using Manager.getLogger() instead of getLogger()), but I can only set the loggerClass globally. Making the loggerClass configurable per manager would solve the problem for me, and AFAICS since most applications don't use different managers anyway, there should not be any detrimental effects. What do you think? cheers, Georg
