Logging Services report 2004-07 & 2004-08 
-----------------------------------------

Projects listed in alphabethical order.

- report for the PMC

The Logging Services PMC has focused its efforts on verifying the
legal and proper status of all projects and committers under the PMC's
jurisdiction.  We have been working with the Foundation to ensure all
committers and code are properly covered as far as licensing and
intellectual property rights are concerned.

While the incubation process is ongoing, we have made some progress
towards agreeing on common interfaces and schemas for logging services
in the different programming languages.

- report for log4cxx

Two new committers, namely, Curt Arnold and Christophe de Vienne, have
joined the log4cxx project.

log4cxx version 1.0 should be released within the next quarter. This
version should have the same feature as log4j 1.2.8 but will not
include log4j 1.3 additions.

For the moment, the supported OS/platforms are Linux/Mandrake10,
Windows/MSVC6, Windows/MSVC7.1, Windows/Cygwin, and FreeBSD. We need
testers in order to support Mac OS X, HPUX, and SunOS.

- report for log4j

The Log4j team continued progress towards the next major release,
log4j version 1.3.  We anticipate the first alpha build of this
version within the next quarter.

We have made specific progress in the area of splitting the log4j
distribution into smaller components: a core, GUI viewers like
Chainsaw, and other additions from the sandbox like filters and
configuration tools.
