freeing up categories/loggers

[Steve Ebersole <st...@austin.rr.com>]

In parts of our application, we are using log4j Logger objects in a
non-static context.  We have a user class, which gets a Logger based upon
the user id this User object represents as well as the HttpSession to which
this user belongs:
Logger logger = Logger.getLogger( "session." + user + "." + session );

However, my understanding is that log4j will keep a reference to this
specific logger in case it can get used again.  But, because this logger is
so unique and there is a high probability that a logger with this exact name
will never again be used, is there a way to tell log4j to close this logger?

P.S., what is the process for submitting new classes to the project?
