Please present some.

I'm not sure what is happening with jUDDI or JaxMe. log4net appears to be just Nicko. log4php appears to be just Marco, and hasn't been touched in 9 months, as best I can tell from a quick browse. Lenya, Geronimo, Derby, Directory, XMLBeans, and others have been required to develop their communities, and appear to have benefited from that requirement. > Log4Net has a strong community. It is known as the Logging Services project. If that were the case, there wouldn't be an issue. However, in this case, the reply was that there are issues in taking responsibility for the code, based upon limited ability to support the language/platform. Personally, I would hope that the incubation tagged distribution would help to attract additional people to work on the project so that this problem can go away. --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
