Yeehaww!! my first tiny bug fix that I submitted at cpan last year for enabling forcing of utf8 modes in perl module Log::Log4perl 's subsystem Log::Log4perl::Appender::Screen got fixed today https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=36673 in release 1.23 of log4perl

I submitted this bug almost a year back and today I got a mail in my inbox saying there had been activity on this bug and the fix I had submitted to allows a coder to specify binmode for STDOUT and STDERR to :utf8. for win32 like consoles(those not using ut8 output mode by default) allowing them to use utf8 or any other char modes in the parameters specified for the screen appender of the logger module. It was slow but I am glad the author included my fix in the code. Now we don need to explicitly specify binmode outside the module or in the program when wanting to log foreign charachter output to the screen :).
