Log4j 2.0 Roadmap

Maybe it's too early to raise this, but I'm wondering, is there a todo list for the new features/improvements that we'd like to get done before releasing (the non-beta version of) Log4J 2.0?

I know about JMX, but are there any other new features planned for the first release?

Are all outstanding Jira tickets in scope for 2.0?
Any Jira tickets or new features that could go in a 2.1 release?

The JMS Appenders are already there.

These are still open because they either have some feature that should be implemented or haven't clearly demonstrated the ability to meet the quality.

When we were making Struts 1 an OSGi bundle, we wrote to the Apache Felix
Development Team and asked for help. We didn't know what we were doing
(right or wrong!), and they helped us a lot getting the manifest right. I
recommend putting a "shout out" to them and get their assistance.

At work, we use the 1.x JDBC and JMS appenders as well as a custom JDBC and
JMS Appenders. So it would be nice to have those in 2.x.

To me, the feature set we have is fine for a 2.0 release.  However, we need to be happy with the public API and be fairly confident in the quality.  

I'm not strong on OSGi and people have mentioned problems with Eclipse. I would love to have someone with more OSGi experience provide guidance on what we need to do there. 

If you go through the Jira issues you will see some that relate to general features or qualities Log4j 2 should have.  These are still open because they either have some feature that should be implemented or haven't clearly demonstrated the ability to meet the quality.  Others are bugs or feature requests where no patch has been supplied.  The others are bugs or features with patches.  I try to apply valid patches as quickly as I can.  The other stuff generally has fallen behind the requirements of my day job.

I'm sure I could think of things for a 2.1 release but I am still focused on just getting 2.0 done.
