stephen mallette updated TINKERPOP-1983:
----------------------------------------
    Affects Version/s: 3.3.3
          Component/s: build-release

Was there a particular problem to solve that required the upgrade? Or was this more of a housekeeping kind of change?

> TinkerPop uses Log4j version 1.2.17 but Log4j 1 reached end of life almost three years ago:

> It would be great if we could update to Log4j2 as it brings some nice benefits like new logging layouts for example (one of them is the JSON layout which is very useful to have to collect logs in something like the ELK stack or Graylog).
