log4j 1.2.14 release

The Apache Logging Services project (http://logging.apache.org) is  
happy to announce the availability of log4j version 1.2.14.  In this  
release, AsyncAppender was rewritten to eliminate reported deadlocks  
and to provide an option to not block if the event queue becomes  
full, SyslogAppender can now accept a port specification, and  
SMTPAppender supports cc and bcc addresses and password  
authentication.  In addition, the following bugs were fixed:

40159: NullPointerException in org.apache.log4j.NDC.get.
36787: org.apache.log4j.lf5.util.DateFormatManager.setTimeZone  
assignment error.
38559: Monthly logs not generated at midnight with  
DailyRollingFileAppender.
40145: PatternLayout specifier %r is not consistent with documentation.
37119: Space after log level causes default level to be used.
39135: Bad patterns in ISO8601DateFormat and DateTimeDateFormat.
35743: SyslogAppender throws NullPointerException upon misconfiguration.
15501: FallbackErrorHandler throws NullPointerException if no loggers  
are set.
38564: Bad documentation for WriterAppender.encoding.
37866: NTEventLogAppender not build, tested and placed in distribution.
38662: SMTPAppender does not output newlines between stack trace lines.
30294: SMTPAppender will not run within sandbox.
16922: MDC with SMTPAppender doesn't work.
31507: Misspelling in HierarchyDynamicMBean.
35123: Additivity not exported by PropertyPrinter.
31003: RollingFileAppender, if removed, can cause NullPointerExceptions.
23021: AsyncAppender blocks on thread death.
40412: NOTICE file added to distribution and jar.
40378: Chainsaw of log4j 1.2 does not show TRACE level.
40501: TRACE level missing in short introduction to log4j.
37960: Update site generation to velocity 1.4 and remove dependency  
on logging/site project.


It takes some time for the release to be distributed to all the  
mirror servers.  At the moment it is known to be available on the  
devlib.org and uniontransit.com mirrors as well as the apache.org and  
eu.apache.org distribution servers.

I added a bug report (http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi? 
id=40604) to cover producing the upload bundle for the ibiblio master  
repository for Maven.  The initial commit repackages the 1.2.14  
release .tar.gz to create a log4j-1.2.14-bundle.jar for the Maven  
upload process.  That should be modified in future releases so the  
maven bundle is created simultaneously with the release builds.

Upload request posted for Maven: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ 
MAVENUPLOAD-1152.  The bundle itself is available at http:// 
people.apache.org/builds/logging/log4j/log4j-1.2.14/log4j-1.2.14- 
bundle.jar.

Great!

Is an upload to iBiblio.org requested each time a release is done? That
would make our life much easier for us Maven developers... Thanks

http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&pid=10367&status=1

It is always best if a developer/committer does request the upload...

Many thanks

Benoit

PS: I was about to add an SMTPAppender with authentication in the Kit on
http://objectlabkit.sourceforge.net
No need now, great.
