We closed a few of them as Won’t Fix. But the issues that were crippling were
- There is no way to replay an orphaned log
and together with
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2629
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2062
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2101
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2781
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-910
this becomes completely crippling (it filled up our disks).

No one has said anything about the logging infrastructure itself. In fact, I do
not think it’s ugly, I think it’s very good. This has nothing to do with that,
logging will work as it does.

Yes, it did bother us, because the misbehavior around orphaned logs are
crippling.

So, I take it that
1) You use this feature?
2) You will support this feature, and work on the code?
I could probably be convinced to give this feature another year “probation”,
but only under the conditions that you answered “yes” to both questions above.
If so, I’ll file a Jira on the biggest issue, that orphaned logs are abandoned
with no way to get inserted again.
Anyone else have any thoughts on this?
