As PMC member I voted to make the source code available in a git
repository. The git repository and the mailing list are all the tools
needed to prepare contributions and fixes. It allows for easy forking and
contributions to prosper. I would love to see this cause the community to
grow. It would be awesome to see more committers and add additional PMC
members.

As of now, log4j1 is still EOL. By examining future contributions we can
have a discussion about the EOL status in the future.

Lets take one step at a time! To me it is premature to open a public issue
tracker or accepting pull requests from the public. Someone would have to
review them and we would allow allocation of resources in favor of loosing
other opportunities. As said, I voted +1 to provide the tools needed to let
contributors work on contributions.

I encourage you to end the discussions now and to start working on
contributions instead.
