[logback-user] configuring logback to log to two different

[Jason L. Buberel]

Although I did see any particular error in your configuration, this is 
what we use in production, which logs content to either file 
(FILE_APPENDER) or console (CONSOLE_APPENDER) from many possible input 
LOGGERS.

In Java, we normally just use:

private static final Logger LOGGER = LoggerFactory.getLogger("general");
