Issue Type: New Feature New Feature
Affects Versions: 1.0.6
Assignee: Logback dev list
Created: 20/Jun/12 11:02 PM
Description: I have the following timestamp element:

  <timestamp key="compactTimestamp" datePattern="yyyyMMdd'T'HHmmss'Z'"/>

for use in a file appender:

 <file>${LOG_DIR}/translator-${compactTimestamp}.log</file>

Note the `Z' in the date pattern. However, the date that is generated is in local time. It would be preferable to have a GMT option as found in the pattern element:

  <pattern>%-80(%d{yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'Z',GMT} %-5p [%t:%C{0}.%M]) %m%n</pattern>

I am working around this by starting the VM with -Duser.timezone=UTC.
