Hi!

My PR #352 (https://github.com/qos-ch/logback/pull/352) was closed, stating 
that it's not generic enough. Given that TestNG is the most widely used Java 
testing framework in the world, how much more generic does a Logback logger 
need to be for it to be included in the mainline project?

The primary challenge with spinning this up as a separate project is that much 
of the basic building blocks for developing loggers and unit tests haven't been 
defined or published in a form that facilitates extension and importation of 
these existing declarations. Consequently, it's necessary to duplicate a 
significant volume of the implementation from the mainline project into the 
companion logger project. This is terribly inefficient and exposes the external 
project to the risk of breakage as revisions are applied to the mainline 
project that aren't automatically picked up by the companion project.

Please advise.

Thanks!
