Yes.  As I said, we will be determining the set of tasks to be completed for
the release, and will start doing more releases.

 Hi,
 
 I would suggest, if possible, more frequent snapshot/alpha builds of
 1.3 branch.
 
 thanks

  reason.  Timeframe is within a month of the 1.2.11 release.
 
  We will be determining the final set of bug fixes to include by the

  api or structural changes.  If you have a suggestion, please let us
  know asap. Reported bugs with understandable descriptions AND patches
  will get priority.  We make no guarantees, but we want to hear about

  release (below).
 
 
  3) Release a 1.3 version based on the current main branch.  Timeframe:
  release of first final version by 10/2005.
 
  v1.3 is the next major release of log4j.  There are going to be many
  changes, some breaking, from the current v1.2 version.  We will be
  posting more information about this in the coming weeks.  In
  particular, we are working on a jDiff report that will more clearly
  show the differences in the api between 1.2.x and the new 1.3
  version.  This version has been a long time coming, and the log4j team
  is committing to getting it out by October. There have already been
  some early alpha releases, and there will be beta releases as we move
  forward.  It is expected that 1.2.12 will be the last release on the
  1.2 branch, and all future effort will be focused on version 1.3.

RE: [INFO] Log4j Release Overview

2005-05-18 Thread Mark Womack
The version number is 1.2.12, not 1.2.1.2, so 1.2.12 will be a newer version
than 1.2.8.  BTW, the latest released version is 1.2.9.

Since we have not decided on the complete set of bug fixes yet, I can't
answer this with complete certainty.  It will contain the change to support
a new level, TRACE, one level below DEBUG.
