I'll give the VOTE a review of course but I do not see the harm in another RC since we will be setting the API in stone as soon as 2.0 is out. We also have only one shot at a first impression.

Pretty much everyone else thinks it is time. If that is the case one of the other PMC members will need to fail or the release vote will fail. For what it is worth, I have no problem with a 2.0.1 or 2.1 in a few weeks if desired. I just think we have been stalling long enough. And I hope we continue to keep fixing things at the same, or better, pace. Sent from my iPad On Jul 13, 2014, at 8:28 PM, Gary Gregory <garydgreg...@gmail.com> wrote: I'd be ok with another RC. My ideal scenario is that an RC is released, some time goes by without new bug reports and then the next RC becomes a release. As things are now, we've fixed plenty since rc2. But hey that's just me ;-) Gary -------- Original message -------- From: Bruce Brouwer Date:07/13/2014 22:35 (GMT-05:00) To: Log4J Developers List Subject: Re: Next release Ok, the only test that didn't pass was the one testing for StatusLogger writing to a file. I removed that test on the branch. If you review that and think it worthy to go into the trunk, I'm pretty much on board with a 2.0 release (unless you think a short lived rc3 is in order).

You can look at the branch LOG4J-609 again if you like. Here are the simplifications that I have made. 1) The listeners no longer report their level. They can decide if they want to do something with a status message in their log method. 2) There is no longer the option to configure the StatusLogger to write to a file. 3) I moved StatusConsoleListener out of log4j-api and into log4j-core, where we can probably get away with making more drastic changes to it in the future (so I can fix LOG4J-609) I have to check on the tests and stuff, but in general, I'm pretty happy with how small the impact is and in its ability to make a better solution for LOG4J-609 possible in the future.

Shouldn't this just be a system property or something? On 13 July 2014 18:57, Bruce Brouwer <bruce.brou...@gmail.com> wrote: The listener can be removed, but nothing ever does. Right now it can never know if it should be removed. And also, all that level checking is cached in StatusLogger. If all you do is change the status level of the listener it has no effect on the cached value in StatusLogger. It may end up having no effect. This is some of the stuff I was trying to clean up with my fix that I have been delinquent with. I will try to simplify this on the branch and see if it makes sense in the next hour or two. -- Matt Sicker <boa...@gmail.com> -- Bruce Brouwer about.me/bruce.brouwer -- Bruce Brouwer about.me/bruce.brouwer
