Why Lumberjack²?

The intend and working of Lumberjack² is similar to Lumberjack, however there were some major changes that required a major rework: Rest support. Supporting rest requires a more complicated WCF integration and more search capabilities. Metadata support has been added. This goes hand in hand with Rest. I decided to switch to WPF in favour of MVC. This gives a faster feedback and makes installation easier. The transmission protocol between WCF hook and client application was migrated from HTTP to TCP/protobuff to achieve higher performance and less latency.

Disclaimer

This is an early version of the tool. Use it on your development machine only - if things look fishy, deactivate ;P
