>Log4j is owned by the Logging Services PMC. You cannot incubate it without
this PMC’s approval.

Exactly. As far as I understand, Logging pmc should accept patches and
release fixes or they should approve reincubating.
Of course, you can try rejecting patches and disapprove reincubation,
however, that won't hold water.

Unfortunately, I have not seen the response from the logging pmc regarding
approve/disapprove re-incubating. There's a pending question to Ron still.

I do not consider forks outside of the ASF.

>But I notice the one topic you did not respond to was the lack of
interested people other than yourself. Why is that?

I find the question irrelevant, and I find it has nothing to do with
accepting patches and releasing 1.2
I belive there were even people on incubator thread, so it is strange why
do you demand that I provide you with a list of rock-star 1.x maintainers.

1) I can't guarantee I will be alive in February. Can you guarantee all the
logging pmc members will be alive then? I doubt so. So I find that
questions like "how can we be sure you will send patches" too intimate.

2) I have already filed a patch for buildscripts. Whould you review it and
merge?

3) Suppose I find a team (e.g 4-5 ASF fellows) who are willing to support
1.2. What do you do then? Would you add all of them to the logging pmc?
I don't really see the point why do you ask, and at the same time I can't
guarantee the people I gather will be alive tomorrow. I can't guarantee
they will always have interest in 1.2
