Fwd: [RESULT] [VOTE] Accept Log4cxx for Incubation

[Christian Grobmeier <gr...@gmail.com>]

hello folks,

the incubator has successfully voted on a new log4cxx incubation.

The next days I will try to work on the next steps and create accounts 
for all who submitted their ICLA.
Once the little infra work is done (moving the svn tree) and the 
accounts are ready you can happily start hacking.

In case of any questions please ask on this list. Scott Deboy who is a 
founding member of Apache Logging and I are monitoring this mailing list 
and try to answer all your questions. However I am going to send another 
introductionary email later, when the resources are up.

Welcome!

Cheers
Christian

Hi Christian,
Really appreciate on your apache contribution on wakeup sleeping projects
like Log4CXX, Wave, etc.

Hopefully, once again we'll make a firm base for those projects in going
forward.
+1 for Christian.
