I believe so. I remember discussing the idea of the abstraction layer before Rod wrote it, and Avalon never came up. Of course, I don't claim to have a perfect memory. ;) org/apache/commons/httpclient/log/Log.java is 5 months, 4 weeks old, while org/apache/avalon/framework/logger/Logger.java is 2 months, 4 weeks old, if that is any indication (which it may not be, who knows).
It doesn't really matter IMO. Clearly people who knew Avalon were involved with the discussions over the past few months, as were people familiar with Log4J. I remember Ceki was a very active participant in the early discussions. There should be some mention of both projects as influences to the final product, although the basic approach may not originate from either. - Morgan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Scott Sanders" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Jakarta Commons Developers List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, January 29, 2002 2:01 PM Subject: RE: [Logging] [VOTE] Commons Logging 1.0 Release So, you are saying that httpclient originated the code without influence from avalon? > -----Original Message----- > From: Morgan Delagrange [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, January 29, 2002 12:05 PM > To: Jakarta Commons Developers List > Subject: Re: [Logging] [VOTE] Commons Logging 1.0 Release > > > I'm fairly sure that the Log and LogSource orginated with > HttpClient.
