Hey all, that itch is back to figure out how to complete my previous attempt at the plugin system updates (started a little over a year ago and put on pause at some point). I'm currently working on getting that branch back up to working again with master (mostly needing to update module-info files), and I'm hoping to map out and figure out the path forward on completing it.
With that being said, one major aspect of this project will be explaining how the 2.x plugin system works, how it relates to the 3.x system, and the gist of how I'd like to restructure things. Does anyone here have any preferences on how I share some docs about this? I could record some videos that go over code and such, or I could write things up blog style. Note that these docs would be focused at fellow log4j developers and not necessarily the user manual. I still plan to have proper API docs and manual pages for the system, but those would be targeted for users writing their own extensions mainly.
