The only "official" support for anything is an implicit reliance on dbcp2 pooling for the SimpleManagedConnection feature in the RDBMS DataConnector, which is not recommended anyway.

If we have to take a position on any of logback's features, I suppose it would be that we officially support only what's in the default file for non-members and would take a stronger stance on supporting members if they were trying to make use of features and having problems. But we haven't ever discussed it.

"Support" for us means a great deal. It seems to mean a lot more to us than it means to other open source projects. "It should work" is not our definition of support. Lots of things should work.
