I just read the project page for firewood. What type of GUI you have in mind? Is it only going to be an IDEA plug-in, or do you have other platforms in mind?

The GUI would be in Swing. But it's a long term project :-)

The aim is to make a simple plugin for both Eclipse and IDEA (and perhaps Netbeans) with almost no GUI, to keep it low-maintenance
Unfortunately Jetbrains like to break their plugin API for every version :-(

And then have a rich stand-alone Swing GUI that everyone can combine with their favorite IDE.

The IDEA plugin works under IDEA 7.x and is already integrated with Vigilog.
But I still have to fix it for IDEA 8.

I looked at Lilith when it was still called Lumberjack, and it seems to have a slightly different goal.
Anyway, I should have another look at it, and steal some of its ideas :-)

Hello Maarten,

It's interesting to learn that protobuf is faster than plain old java serialization. Thanks.

How about the size of the stored data? How many bytes does a logging event use on average?
