[ http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-22?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system... ] Ceki Gulcu commented on LBCLASSIC-22: -------------------------------------
After careful consideration I have reached the conclusion that I will not do "after-the-fact"-discussions.
I understand that you are pissed that your XMLLayout contribution was not adopted as is. I also understand that you are peeved about the lack of discussion before I committed XMLLayout in SVN. My bad. Can we discuss the functionality missing in XMLLayout compared to your version?
I have a need for the functionality provided by my implementation so I will bring it in the as400 incubator (with a revised name).
Same question as above, which functionality do you have in mind?
Regarding my name in the @author tag: I have found in general that @author tags are more a hinderance than an advantage in projects where code are considered a common responsibility - if you see a bug, you take responsibility and ensure it is fixed (perhaps by yourself) - and for a SVN-backed project like logback it is redundant and perhaps even outdated. Hence you do not have to add my name to the authors tags in the future and I'd appreciate it if you would remove it from those files which have it.
There are different opinions on the subject of author tags. IMO, in oss projects where peer recognition is a big motivation for contributors, author tags matter quite a bit. At this time, there is only one class bearing your name, i.e. XMLLayout. At your request, I'll remove your name from that class asap.
feature request: XMLLayout (cfr. log4j) ---------------------------------------
