Streamlining the architectures across the different log4* implementations has been discussed earlier. It would make sense to split log4net into several libraries (api, configuration, several appender.xxx, etc). Further make these assemblies all available over nuget. I could imagine this to become part of a not yet existing 3.0 milestone if the community is willing to contribute. I see also more important things to flesh out (getting a release out of the door, reimplement the rolling file appender, replace nant to improve builds and their automation, automate deployments to nuget, ..).
