if we add people, then we add it to the logging project. There is no separate 
log4j/log4php whatever community. We are one community.

That's why I think we should have voted on the goal first, and then discuss 
technical details.
At the moment I think the PMC is pretty much 1.x stays EOL at this point of 
time.

It was already mentioned 2015. You can send patches, become a committer to ASF 
Logging and when everybody sees there is real interest and real developer 
capacity behind this idea, then maybe we as community decide to make a separate 
product.

Please use another email thread than the vote thread to discuss these things 
anyway, it makes it harder to count the votes.

Thank you.
