[logback-user] TurboFilter thread-safety?

[Ceki Gülcü]

Hello César,

Logback does not use any synchronization when invoking turbo filters.
TurboFilters needs to ensure they are thread safe on their own. The fact 
that DuplicateMessageFilter does not synchronize on LinkedHashMap is 
probably a bug. Could you please enter a bug report for the issue you 
just discovered?
