Hi Sven, nice to have you aboard. I don't thing it's a good idea to release a final 3.0 version which will change a lot in future versions. And if we just tack on namespaces to current class naming scheme, that would need to be changed in the future. I think it's worth putting in a little more effort into a 3.0 release. At the very least, we should fix class naming so it's e.g. Apache\Log4php\Layouts\PatternLayout instead of LoggerLayoutPattern.
If we do go down the quick & dirty path (which is tempting, since it's progress and is within reach), then I would much prefer to call the result 3.0 alpha 1, and have more iterations before releasing the final product. We don't need to rush, but we need to break this down to small steps otherwise we'll get stuck again. Concerning the 2.x branch, I'd like to keep it active parallel with 3.x. We'd can just copy the current master & develop branches to master-2.x and develop-2.x (or something similar, don't know if there's a standard naming scheme for this). This way we can later release new versions of 2.x if needed. PSR-2, as you said, is not a problem. BTW, If my life goes according to plan (which it never does), I might have more time to work on log4php sometime early next year. Until then I'll try to invest time into managing the project, and start the work towards 3.0 with your and others' help.
