> log4j 2.0 should provide an API that is generally source compatible with client code that currently uses
log4j 1.2.  This API would have a different package name to distinguish it from log4j 1.2 (see LOG4J2-10 for
a drop in emulation of log4j 1.2).  log4j 2.0 may provide other APIs in addition to the log4j 1.2 compatible
API.
