Hi All: Because I could not get the full build to run on Windows 7 with Maven 2 or 3. I feel reluctant to VOTE +1 here. This is a know issue due to the use the GNU app Winres. I get bits and pieces of the build to work but nothing like the level of confidence I have running Commons builds for different components. I can build the site (with the Maven stack trace noted in other RC votes), I can run the tests. The changes seems OK, but... as a new committer here I need to learn the code some more.
Is the only way to get this to build is to install VirtualBox and a Linux distro? I will note the following nits though: The build instructions use both version 1.2.16 and 1.2.17 in text and examples, see " http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/site/trunk/docs/log4j/1.2/building.html This is not critical but should be fixed in SVN. I would like to see version agnostic instructions or use the latest version (the one being built). I see this warning from M3 and M2: prepare: [available] DEPRECATED - <available> used to override an existing property. [available] Build file should not reuse the same property name for different values. Not a showstopper but should be addressed or documented in SVN.
