------------------------------------

Hi Brian, 

Here are my answers:

- I don't personally use netty but that should not be an impediment
- Yes, I envision the possibility. Does netty offer access logging capability out-of-the-box? If not, a logback-access plug-in for netty is an obvious solution. Even if such capability exists out-of-the-box in netty, logback-access' logging functionality is likely to be far superior.
- Yes, it would be rather cool.

> I was looking for a Netty http access logging solution and found logback-access via Googling.
> Since you only have support for Tomcat and Jetty and other servlet container, I wonder if a Netty solution would be useful.
> Since Netty is NOT a container in the J2EE sense, it only allows programmatic extension by inserting channel handler(s) into its pipeline.  I have coded an experimental toy project based on this design but without using Logback yet. 
> Questions to the community:
>  * are you using Netty?
>  * would you envision people using Netty and wanting logback-access?
>  * would you like to see Netty support as part of logback-access?
