   I use the log package. It is very useful for generating logs. If you want
   to start another project I don't think @kr or I would object.

   The README says:

   Go package for parsing (and, eventually, generating) log lines in the
   logfmt style.

   Is there still interest in working on the generating part?

   I've been contributing to both log15
   https://github.com/inconshreveable/log15 and gokit/log
   https://github.com/peterbourgon/gokit. log15 already supports a logfmt
   flavor https://godoc.org/gopkg.in/inconshreveable/log15.v2#LogfmtFormat
   of output, and gokit/log would like to. In go-kit/kit#34
   go-kit/kit#34 I suggested it would be
   nice to have an encoding/json or encoding/xml style package that supports
   marshaling and unmarshaling logfmt data with support for the
   encoding.TextMarshaler and encoding.TextUnmarshaller interfaces.

   Is there interest in doing that work here? If not, would @kr
   https://github.com/kr and @bmizerany https://github.com/bmizerany
   object to a new project attempting to create such an API for logfmt,
   possibly starting as a fork of this repo? Would you be willing to help with
   feedback if questions arise regarding logfmt specifics?
