| |
| <p> |
| The log4net project was started by <a href="http://www.neoworks.com">Neoworks Limited</a> |
| in June 2001. It was created as an internal project within Neoworks to port the Apache |
| log4j™ code base to the Microsoft® .NET Framework. The code base was initially branched |
| from a pre-alpha log4j 1.2. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| In July 2001 a <a href="http://sourceforge.net">Sourceforge</a> project was started |
| and log4net was published under the Apache Software License. The first public release of |
| log4net was made in September 2001. A further 10 releases were made on the sourceforge |
| site. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| In December 2003 the Apache Logging Services project was created. |
| In February 2004 log4net was donated by Neoworks to the Apache Software Foundation |
| to become a member of the Logging Services project. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| In February 2007 log4net graduated from the Apache Incubator project to become a |
| fully fledged Apache project. Apache log4net is a subproject of the Logging Services project. |
