Re: Call for developers (Re: Recent updates)

[Tommi Mäkitalo <to...@epgmbh.de>]

Hi,

I'm still alive;-) And yes - I would like to help. I once signed and faxed 
already a CLA (if I remember right I used another e-mail-address 
tommi@tntnet.org).

I was busy in other projects, but I can spend more time for log4cxx now. I 
would love to see aa active c++-logging library and log4cxx is the best I 
have seen.
