Rich, > Can you tell me when you plan on releasing new code?
Not with any great certainty. I am still working through the FxCop issues and improving the NDoc documentation. When that is done it should be in good shape for another code release. > Is there anything that needs help that I could lend my hands to? The core of log4net always needs more tests, documentation and examples. There are a number of appenders that need writing or updating: * A socket appender (similar to the UdpAppender but Tcp rather than Udp) * A message queue appender * An xml-rpc appender * A new DbAppender that uses the same schema as the new log4j DBAppender * Update the SMTPAppender to use a separate SMTP agent. The System.Web.Mail package may not be available on all platforms.
