Moving the component and receivers to Chainsaw is low effort and still a 
desirable approach in my opinion. Gary Gregory would be able to continue to use 
XmlSocketReceiver, he would just need to distribute an officially released 
Chainsaw.jar instead of a SVN snapshot jars of component and receivers.

Moving component and receivers to extras is not a substantial amount of work 
and would be my second choice.

Moving component and receivers to core would be more work given the 
peculiarities of the tests. It took a couple of hours just to move the Rewrite 
appenders and their tests.

I don't see an immediate need to delete components or receivers from SVN. We 
still have log4j 1.3 visible in SVN if anyone wanted to mine it for anything. 
We can appropriately note their integration into Chainsaw and drop them as 
entries in the navigation.
