> The SimpleLog4JLogSystem class closes all appenders in its shutdown() method, 
> even if the appenders were not created by Velocity. This can cause problems if 
> the logging system is initialized in your servlet, and if Velocity instances 
> are finalized while other instances are in use -- since Log4J Categories are 
> static :P
> What should probably happen is a flag should be set so that appenders are only 
> closed if they were created by the SimpleLog4JLogSystem class, and/or when all 
> Velocity instances are GC'ed.
