Logback docs: Basic configuration example uses layout instead of encoder

Hello Logback community, Several times when searching for initial basic logback configuration file, I'd end up at http://logback.qos.ch/manual/joran.html and use basic configuration example, but then I'd get error/warning message by logback at runtime about deprecated configuration option with reference to http://logback.qos.ch/codes.html#layoutInsteadOfEncoder Is there any valid reason for this example to still use deprecated stuff? Kind regards, Stevo.

The page http://logback.qos.ch/manual/joran.html no longer exists. It was split into configuration.html and onJoran.html eons ago. If you try to access joran.html on the web site, you should now be redirected to onJoran.html. In any case, examples with FileAppender (or derived classes) using <layout> without an enclosing <encoder> should me modified to use <encoder>
Is there any valid reason for this example to still use deprecated stuff?
No reason at all. The page in question, i.e. joran.html, was stale.
Kind regards, Stevo.
