> Rob Ross reports:
> Also, on Chapter 3 of the current Logback documentation manual, when  it discusses variable substitution it mentions  "Recursive  Substitution." Well, if you re-read that section carefully I think  you'll agree that this example is in fact NOT doing any kind of  *recursion*, it is just using multiple variables. They are not even  being nested. So I would suggest calling it something other than  "recursion." The people that will read this manual are programmers,  and we all know (or should know ) what recursion is, and I think this  will just confuse people.
