There's not even an unofficial date as to when to consider when the unofficial release date of the ALPHA version will be..... :)
Ceki and Mark are probably still catching up on their emails from being at the ApacheCon conference a few weeks ago. Of course don't be afraid to build log4j 1.3 pre-alpha youself and give us feedback.... It's all there in cvs, just check it out and use ant to build it.... I personally think it's looking very good. cheers, Paul Smith -----Original Message----- From: Jon Wilmoth To: Log4J Developers List Sent: 12/2/03 5:02 PM Subject: RE: Status of LogFile Appender changes Great news! I know there's no official release date targeted, but is there an unofficial target date for the 1.3 release? -----Original Message----- From: Paul Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, December 01, 2003 9:15 PM To: Log4J Developers List Subject: Re: Status of LogFile Appender changes On Tue, 2003-12-02 at 16:00, Jon Wilmoth wrote: > I took a look at the Log4j plan > (http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/docs/plan.html) and noticed that > "Strategy based rollovers" has not started.

Ceki has already done major work in this area for the log4j 1.3 release which has not quite reached the Alpha phase at this point. You can see the fruits of his efforts in the org.apache.log4j.rolling package available through the cvs module. There is already a good chunk of test cases there for this area, so I believe it is stable, pending the update of all the documentation required for the release. You will definately see this in the 1.3 release. cheers, Paul Smith --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
