To solve my practical problem -- which I'm sure many other people have:Can someone make available a version of 1.2.10 built with 1.2.9 private key?

I have been tempted to jump into this thread - ever since I saw signs of "open-sourcing" log4net's private key. In all honesty I wanted to see what the community would get to. The recent dialog about code-signing - while useful - were really a separate thread about .NET specifics e.g. assembly-lo

Nick, back to a solution to this quandary. I may have proposed this already but I'm not sure. Assumption: only the "official owner" of log4net should be able to sign the log4net.dll assembly with the "official" public/private key pair. Why this assumption? Otherwise, anyone could sign the assemb
