Replace, please no. I'd rather not stare at json messages. >From the sidelines: We'd only need one logging infrastructure in place, as the formatting would be done as a later step? For local operations we'd certainly find better formatting than json, and we figured that we might end up desiring ProtocolBuffers[1] instead of JSon, so if it would be easy to change the output of the structured logging easily that would be great. But AFAICT these series are all about putting the sampling points into the code base, so formatting would be orthogonal to it? Stefan [1] https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/
