The previous license was GNU General Public License (GPL). I had received
many requests to change the license due to the "viral" nature of the GPL.
Now that it is released under LGPL, you are free to use Chainsaw with
commercial software.

The patch was inspired because of the desire to analyse the logs from
our production server, which we cannot run Chainsaw against. It also
makes the collection of log messages more robust, as you do not rely
on:
1) Chainsaw running all the time;
2) A network connection.

As a result of the change, it would be very easy to support collecting
log messages from other sources such as JMS or JDBC. Just wish I had
the time. ;-)

No worries - BTW can the link to Chainsaw off the Log4J website be updated.
