Should the new module name/ID be:

- log4j-streams
- log4j-streaming
- log4j-<your suggestion>

?

Using the name "streams" might be confusing the Java 1.8 streams (aka
lazily evaluated functions/map-reduce). I'd almost suggest javaio or jio or
something similar to emphasise the compatibility.

Yeah, plain 'streams' is not great. Let's see... we are talking about
java.io classes that are OutputStreams, InputStreams, Writers, and Readers.

- log4j-java.io
Can you have a . in a module name like that without causing confusion,
it kinda looks weird but it the best IMO.
- log4j-javaio
- log4j-javaio-bridge

?

Now that I see:

I wonder where is:

org.apache.logging.log4j.nio

Me too! Thankfully, no JDK API logs to Buffers or Channels or anything. :P

Hate them all but nothing good pops to mind right now. Frankly, I find the "streams" in java 8 a confusing term. When I looked at it I was reminded of Cocoon pipelines. I wish they had used that term instead.
