Hi Stefan, this reads great! I've adapted a few lines:
,---- | log4net 1.2.15 a bugfix release that fixes a regression in the ADO.NET <http://ado.net/> | appender introduced with 1.2.14 and completes the changes necessary to | support async/await with .NET 4.0 and later. See | | http://logging.apache.org/log4net/release/release-notes.html | | for a full list of changes. | | This is the last log4net release that provides assemblies for .NET 1.x ~ or 2.0 and Mono 1.x. We will try to stay compatible with those frameworks | in future releases but people using said frameworks will need to build and test ~ the binaries from the source distribution themselves. People using said frameworks + should notice that they will eventually have to maintain compatibility in the rare case + that future modifications to log4net broke the compatibility. Patches are always + welcome! We decided to take this step because supporting these old frameworks consumes + a large amount of resources while the effort is probably wasted. If a existing + software that runs on a old .NET framework absolutely requires a newer log4net version, + we encourage developers to migrate the software to a newer .NET framework. Migration + is usually painless and achieved quickly. `---- Cheers 2015-12-08 17:45 GMT+01:00 Jeremiah Gowdy <jerem...@gowdy.me>: > Text looks good to me. +1 > > > On Dec 8, 2015, at 8:31 AM, Stefan Bodewig <bode...@apache.org> wrote: > > > > Hi > > > > it looks as if I could start publishing 1.2.15 tomorrow morning (in my > > central european limited view of the world :-).
