Oh neat. I've gotten too used to working for an enterprise that now I

have gotten the wrong impression about Apache. Glad to know!
Thats what got me involved. I like the "meritocracy", as we call it.
Whoever does the things, "leads". If there a multiple people who do the
same,
we try to build a consensus. Healthy projects are not to shy even build
a consensus
with the community. Thats why we always invite even non-committers to
participate
on release votes and other decisions.
Here is some background info:

Here are a few of my personal interpretations of this topic:

Actually, there is a decent chance it will be the GA release. We are
waiting for feedback from Gary on what he thinks.
FWIW, there is no “Project Manager” here. We make decisions based
on
consensus. However, the release manager does get some latitude.

I am wondering if there is a GA date decided for log4j2?
Is patch 9 the last beta release, or are there many more beta loads
planned ?
The next release will be an RC release.
The reason I ask is we currently use log4j, however we have found
that
in our larger installations where we produce a lot of logging it is
not fit
for purpose. We want to move to log4j2 and are currently testing our
large
installations against it. However we cannot put a beta version of
log4j2
into our own GA release (due in mid year, however we would need a
large
lead time to fully test log4j2). We need some indication as to when
log4j2
will GA so as we can decide if we can use it or not in our own next
release.
Any information would be greatly appreciated on this.
Based on current blockers and critical bugs, if you're not using
OSGi,
the current code is pretty much ready for a GA release. I'd like to
see an
RC1 release soon, but that's up to the PM I think.
