Thanks Nicko. I checked out log4net from cvs last night. Right now I'm trying to grapple with the build process. On my way to check out latest nant. The vs.net sln also has build errors so I'm digging into some of the docs. Errors are mostly missing references so I guess these are not terribly hard to fix.

You will need to specify the layout as <layout type="log4net.Layout.XmlLayoutSchemaLog4j" /> to get log4net to produce output that is compatible with the log4j schema. Log4net was generating the log4j timestamp incorrectly for non UTC timezones. This problem is fixed in the CVS version of log4net, but to get that fix you will need to get the latest version from CVS and build yourself a new copy.
