Great, thanks!

I'm just saying that the tools on the LOGBack website don't convert 
patterns.
It left my LOG4J pattern intact, but the results were kind of "unexpected" 
at runtime.

It's not that obvious for those that never used Groovy, but fair enough, you 
get an error at runtime without the required JAR.

Did you have a look at

   http://logback.qos.ch/manual/layouts.html#ClassicPatternLayout

I don't understand. Can you please expand?

Groovy support in logback was tested and built with version Groovy 1.7.
Other than that, there is plenty of Groovy related documentation
available. It would not be reasonable to repeat that information in
logback manuals.
