Stefan Bodewig resolved LOG4NET-553.
------------------------------------
       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 2.0.8

Many thanks, Jean-Francois, I've committed you patch. I had to slightly amend it to exclude the tests in .NET Standard again as there is no {{Listeners}} property on {{Debug}} there.

> The DebugAppender always uses the {{System.Diagnostics.Debug.Write(string,string)}} overload passing in the loggername as the category parameter.
> It should be possible to omit the category parameter if having the loggername as category is not desired.
> Attached is a patch implementing the desired new feature, which would be activated by configuration:
> {code:xml}
> <appender name="DEBUG" type="log4net.Appender.DebugAppender">
>     <outputCategory value="false"/>
>     <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
> 	  <conversionPattern value="%-5level: %message%newline"/>
>     </layout>
>   </appender>
> {code}
> In my patch, the outputCategory parameter defaults to true, so the behavior doesnt change unless the new configuration is used.
