Potential ETA on a newer Log4j release

[Pariksit-Dogra]

Hi Log4j Team, Hope you are doing well. I was curious if there is a release calendar in place or potential timeline for the next log4j-core release as I am particularly interest in the merged fix for this issue: 3947. Thank you for your hard work and happy holidays!

I will cut 2.25.3 in a week or two.

Hi @Pariksit-Dogra,

In the meantime, could you try your configuration against the current 2.26.0-SNAPSHOT to confirm there aren’t any other easy fixes we should address alongside this one (e.g. problems with some characters in the ThreadContext)? You can find the snapshots repository URL on our download page.

RFC 5424 layout usage is relatively uncommon (many users unfortunately prefer the unstructured PatternLayout 😢 ), and RFC 5424 servers are designed to be fix minor formatting issues. Still, if there are some formatting problems, we'd better fix them in Log4j.
