Hi all, What I suggest here is, that we should come to a conclusion soon and resume/re-start developments/fixes ASAP. Because that's the only way to regain Log4CXX glory!!!
Last few weeks, I tried to fix some [atlease blocking]bugs, but I couldn't finish since i don't have commit rights.Once you go through the bug lists,you may find those enhancements requested are not such big issues. But we have to make it happen. Christian??? Any steps further, please.... regards, *Chand Priyankara* [image: Facebook]<http://www.facebook.com/chand.priyankara> [image: LinkedIn] <http://lk.linkedin.com/in/chandpriyankara> [image: Blogger] <http://chandpriyankara.blogspot.com/> [image: Google Plus]<http://plus.google.com/104246340732624023499> |BSc(Eng) - Electrical & Information |(094) 773-361-566 |[email protected] |http://chandpriyankara.blogspot.com <http://www.iucnredlist.org/amazing-species>sent via internet On Tue, Apr 23, 2013 at 9:52 PM, Christian Grobmeier <[email protected]>wrote: > On Tue, Apr 23, 2013 at 6:19 PM, Nick Williams > <[email protected]> wrote: > > Lacking any responses, I'll chime in: > > > > I didn't know log4cxx existed.
