We (at least I) want to focus on 1.3.x. You have the power and license to create your own version of log4j with TRACE embedded, or extended. Go for it. By releasing another 1.2.x series with TRACE added we'd get bombarded with support requests that would simply distract us from 1.3. We are also busy developers with real jobs, we do log4j for fun.
my 2 cents only.

My working modification for adding a native trace level to log4j adds 18 non-comment lines to Category, 3 to Level, 1 to Priority. In other words, it is a simple little 22 line mod. The committers of log4j voted to include trace, when? About a year ago? Two have corrected me about my technically inaccurate claim that those who control log4j refuse to add trace yet look around, trace is still not available to log4j users at large, after all this time. If we had one line of code for every month that has gone by since adding trace was first requested we'd have the feature up and running with some extra lines to spare for java doc!

Yes it was decided to add it, but not in which version.
Ceki (and possibly others) totally refused to just add those majorly nice
but _very simple_ changes to the 1.2.8 and 1.2.9 release. And now we're
waiting for lots of other stuff that's for my part rather uninteresting.
The 1.3 version does just not seem to happen.
1.3 comes when it's ready. And with it trace. Yes, okay. When? I want trace now, from a proper release.

Endre.
