As you could probably tell from the flurry of commit messages, I've been prepping another round of release candidates. This time it includes log4j 1.2.15 and a flock of companions. If they pass an initial sanity check, I'd like to proceed to a release vote on them. If anyone else wants to look any or all of them, please go ahead. If it passes your inspection, start a [VOTE] thread on it. I'm going to double check the uploaded files against builds on a different VM and do some internal validation tomorrow. If nobody else has kicked off a vote by that time, I'll start one once I do my double check.

Chainsaw hasn't been updated to reference these release candidates and there is still the open question on how to address the loss of repository properties in the move from log4j 1.3 to log4j 1.2. One of the possibilities would be to back-port that to log4j 1.2 itself, however if that was the chosen approach, I would want to do it in a quick 1.2.16 to avoid adding a relatively risky change at the last minute to a long overdue and conservative maintenance release. My preferred approach would be to address the issue either within Chainsaw or the Component companion (either in a subsequent RC or a 1.1 version). I'll look at Chainsaw tomorrow and hopefully will have a better answer for that.

All distribution files listed have a correponding .md5 file. A list of dependencies follows the companion. If log4j 1.2.9+, then the companion was build against log4j 1.2.9 and should work with any later version of log4j and likely works with 1.2.8 and some earlier versions). The LS staging Maven repository (http:/people.apache.org/ builds/logging/repo) contains all the associated jars and POMs.
