Joshua Masek commented on LOG4NET-27:
-------------------------------------
What I originally submitted (and looks like it has been made into a patch), I
have been running in production for close to 3 years (against the 1.2.10
version), and am not aware of any issues with it. Seems to be working, and
nobody has had a harddisk fill up with logs (and I log heavily).
I don't know if there are any concerns that have prevented it being in the
trunk. My guess is that development on log4net has been minimal (considering
it took 5 years to have a new minor version release), and may have something to
do with this. Also in my opinion, it isn't simple to resolve cleanly (I did my
best) and maybe there is still thought to be put into it.
What I provided wasn't necessarily even me recommending it to be in the trunk,
but rather just something people could use to get around the limitation.
