Assigning log4j log levels to logging "business" information

I was wondering where in the log4j levels I should assign "business" info.

1) INFO ? In that case I get all the warnings and errors and crap as well.

2)BIZZ? - a new level, turning off all errors, warnings, info, debug.

3)Use separate logger only for "business" information and log at INFO level.

All comments, ideas welcome.
Thanks,
-Barry

I reckon I can assign an LevelMatchFilter to an Appender to get just the INFO level messages out to a file.

I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
