Otherwise, incorporating any changes into an Apache-blessed tree at a later date becomes difficult. If someone could instruct me on this process, I could submit a contribution agreement ASAP, and then keep this in mind while managing the fork. I suspect a small community would not give me much trouble in this regard. -- Pedro Lamarão Rosa e Silva Prodist Technologies http://www.prodist.com.br/ Securing Transaction Systems Tel.: (21) 4062-7188 signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Since *Christian* is here, I hope we can continue with: https://github.com/apache/log4cxx I have somehow missed this. We will see about rebasing our internal fork onto that.

Re: log4cxx - reaching out for interested developers
Guten Tag Christian Grobmeier, am Donnerstag, 18. April 2013 um 11:35 schrieben Sie: Lets hope a few more people are interested, then we might have a chance to go to incubation. Interest shouldn't be a problem at all, I'm definitely, because I switched a lot of our projects to log4cxx within the last 2 or 3 years. I even svnsync'ed all log4cxx code base for days after I read you considering moving the project to attic. ;-) But doing active development or releases is another thing, we are only a small company of 3 devs and therefore simply don't have the resources to invest a valuable amount of time into log4cxx development on a regular basis. Besides that, what I'm able and willing to do is to provide patches for bug fixes, any further development we do for our requirements and give some support on the mailing list if I'm able to help. From what I understand this should all be a lot easier if log4cxx moves (back?) to incubator.
