+1 Piotr, you populated #2163 <https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/issues/2163> tasks last week and there asked to port `log4j-jcl` changes from `2.x` to `main`. That is what I spent my yesterday with. I would appreciate it if you can share these kinds of developments earlier. Putting that aside, thanks for following up on `log4j-jcl` and I think it is good that we can drop it.
