I forget, is the "official" release strongly named? And if so, did those other components reference it by strong name? I tend to hate strong naming! It's a logging component, if there's an upgrade I should be able to use it, why should I be tied to an older version just because you built against the older version?

So the last time log4net upgraded from .9 to .10, that process was actually somewhat painful for me.. as you note a lot of components rely on log4net .10.. And dealing with different versions of log4net simultaneously wasn't fun (we weren't allowed to gac it for various reasons, nor do you want 2 copies of log4net loaded into a single process anyways). Now, given that most to all of the updates/bug fixes are in the appenders, it may make sense to split log4net into 2 packages.. one that's the core log4net bits + appender skeleton + interfaces.. and one that's the bundled appenders.. That way, the third party packages (nunit, nhibernate, ...) can depend on the core log4net bits without having to upgrade every time Nicko does a appender bug fix.. This may even be enough to warrant a 1.3 ? Nicko? -Peter On Thu, Apr 2, 2009 at 11:35 AM, Yaojian <sky...@gmail.com> wrote: I am totally agree with the reliable of log4net. I just want a bug-fix version, espically the UdpAppender issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-112 As lots of third-party components (for example, NHibernate) rely on log4net's public GA 1.2.10, I have to rebuild all these third-party components with my private build from the log4net svn :-( On Thu, Apr 2, 2009 at 11:20 PM, Peter Drier <peter.dr...@gmail.com> wrote: Maybe when someone comes up with a legit feature need that it doesn't already cover? Seriously though, I've been using 1.2.10 for years now and log4net has been the most reliable 3rd party package I've used across many applications. The only things I've needed that it couldn't do fit easily in the appender and plugin frameworks. Don't fix what isn't broken!
