I am less optimistic than you. In my experience, once cast, many committers albeit not all, would first drink lethal poison before reverting their -1 vote. Whatever the reasons given today, those who cast -1 votes will continue to do so under various pretexts, which may be justified, unjustified, honest, disguised or otherwise. In short, it is practically impossible for a rejected proposal to get subsequently accepted. In any case, I won't be presenting a proposal. Now if a heroic soul wishes to try, I wish them all the luck in the world.

Ceki,
Are you saying that there is no longer any interest to support slf4j in log4j? I don't speak for you, but I know I am still interested in it. It sounds like others are as well. Depending on the timeframes for slf4j and the (currently numbered) v1.3 version of log4j, releasing something on the 1.2.X code base can still make a lot of sense. The recall of the 1.2.10 version has never been about WHETHER to do a slf4j version. It has been about WHEN to do it. There are some questions on HOW, but those can be hashed out. Anyway, the repository will be set up for whatever is decided. It is up to people to choose to do it.
v1.2.10 was recalled, so removing the binaries is appropriate. I'd prefer that folks not be able to get their hands on it. Again, if we want to release an appropriately marked "experimental" version (I don't know what phrase you want to use here), we can. All it takes is a vote.
