I was under the impression that we were not ready to integrate the site from log4j-scala. That's why I considered the release of log4j-scala as delayed, since there is no point of releasing it if we cannot get the site integrated.
But now when Ralph says he's ready to integrate the site, I guess we can go ahead and release log4j-scala. I don't like the idea of having separate versioning for log4j-scala, that will be confusing since we have already started with the same versioning as Log4j. Log4j-scala also have a dependency on log4j-api, and I think we want to keep that in sync.
