+1 on the GitHub mirror.
If you would like to push this on infra side, I believe nobody of us
has a problem with it - just go ahead.

Specifically we want to short-circuit Log4jLogEvent.getSource to return a fixed String. We are using AsynchAppender and 'Log4jLogEvent.getSource' is a noticeable performance bottleneck for us, and we currently don't see a better way around it (ok, to be completely honest, we just don't have the cycles to refactor Log4J2 properly). So the idea was to keep a GitHub fork and merge periodically with the master copy.
