Unfortunately, log4j 1.3 development proceed for a substantial amount of time with little concern with compatibility with compatibility with log4j 1.2 and the primary developer of log4j 1.3 has left for other projects. We are left trying to remedy the situation we are in. There have definitely been incremental releases in the log4j 1.2.x branch and may continue to be so, but the code is very dated and extremely difficult to modify without potential compatibility issues.
Little concern with compatibility, that is certainly not correct. My concern is to produce the best library possible within the constraints imposed by the resources available. As such, although important, backward compatibility is not my ultimate yardstick. It is easy to qualify each and every incompatible change as reckless.
