Summarized the discussions on the dev list regarding design decisions

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   * Bug 37484 ''[logging] call to getClassLoader() in Log``Factory``Impl not 
checked for null''
     * Might have been solved already.
  
- == Bug Fix ==
+ == Bug Fixes ==
+ 
+ == Design decisions ==
+ 
+  * Do we remove the Servlet``Context``Cleaner?
+    1. It's obviously too controversial. Maybe the code could be put in the 
documentation somewhere, or on the wiki.
+ 
+  * Decide whether to merge the weak-hash-map stuff into the main trunk or 
leave it in an "optional" jar. If we merge it, we can do away with the optional 
jar completely which is good. However it does mean that if there is a bug in it 
people can't disable it. If bundled in the main jar there might need to be a 
little extra code to just ignore it when it throws an exception on load for 
java < 1.3.
+ 
+  * Sort out whether we split Log4JLogger into two classes or not. If we 
choose two classes, how should we name them?
+    1. Rename Log4``J12``Logger.java back to Log4JLogger.java. That would make 
the upgrade transparent for the previous use-case. But there is the chance that 
this will not work at all for a user that is currently using JCL 1.0.4 together 
with log4jalpha-something and a configuration file stating that Log4JLogger 
should be used.
+    1. Users who configure JCL to use Log4JLogger might reasonably expect JCL 
to guess the log4j version and use the correct logger. so, perhaps one option 
would be to create a delegating implementation. 
+ 
+  * Decide our jar distribution strategy (in particular, whether we ship the 
optional jar or not).
+ 
+  * How do we give downstream packagers and users a fair view of the actual 
JCL dependencies?
  
  == Test Compatibility ==
  
- Verify that trace level logging works correctly with Log4J 1.2.12+. ''DONE''
+ Verify that TRACE support works for Log4J 1.2.12+. ''DONE''
  
  == Release Notes ==
