Hey Christian,

[moving this to log4net-dev only]

According to Stefan we cannot use Gump for nightly builds but should rather set 
up jenkins. Therefore I read through [1] and it
seems that there's at least one major issue with Jenkins: the jenkins slaves do 
not include an installation of nant. This requires
us to move to ant (unfeasible) or discuss with the jenkins admins to set up 
nant.

I am not an expert on neither jenkins nore nant and there are probably a lot 
more culprits ahead. Therefore I believe that nightlies
come with quite a lot of work and maybe that work is not worth the effort if 
there's not much interest in the community anyway.

Cheers,
D.
