Absolutely. That's why I qualified it with "who want to do the porting
work" :-)
Whether a log4j2 port happens or not really is decided by the people who
are willing and able to invest the time needed. The same is true for any
other decision we take. There is no "business plan" for log4net, those
who do the work decide about what gets done.
I hear you and I understand why a log4net closer to log4j2 might be
attractive but I am completely unable to devote the time needed for
something that would more or less amount in a rewrite.
