Gary, the `kotlin` directory is for placing release candidates for the Log4j Kotlin API. Same with the `scala` directory there. Whenever I promote a release candidate to a release, I use `svn mv` between dist/dev to dist/prod basically. See step (13) in https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/LOGGING/Log4j+Kotlin+API+Release+Process <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/LOGGING/Log4j+Kotlin+API+Release+Process> for how exactly that’s done. — Matt Sicker
