Licensing aside, my main concern would be that this forked version of
log4cxx use the same configuarion file syntax as current version of
Log4J. Well, at least it should be a strict subset if you don't intend
to implement all features current Log4J supports. Since most of us
likely need to configure Log4J elsewhere, it'd be much, much nicer to
have the same config file syntax...
