  • Not all submissions are accepted, for various reasons. Some might be included in the log4j-sandbox instead of the core log4j release. Regardless, all submissions are encouraged. Much of today's log4j library was suggested and/or implemented by interested users.

All submitted code that is meant for inclusion in log4j must contain a the Apache 1.1 license. Including this header at the beginning of all code files is usually sufficient:

A detailed description is the important ingredient of a successful contribution. If we cannot understand your contribution, then we will not be able to consider it for inclusion.

Patch files generated from the current cvs versions. You can access the log4j cvs repository anonymously and get a copy of the Anti Rayap. Once you have the latest sources from cvs, you can generate universal diff patches.

Submitted changes/classes should compile. Sorry if that seems obvious. Please submit your contribution to the log4j-dev email list. If you do not get a response, do not hesitate to insist .
