Will there be a Log4J 2.0 release (and if so, when)?

It seems like v2 of Log4j has been in development for literally years. The Apache Log4J site no longer lists a roadmap, the dev mailing list seems almost entirely about 1.2 (which is appreciated!), use of v1.3 is discouraged, and the 2.0 branch is listed as "experimental". What's a believer to believe?

Log4j development has for all practical purposed stalled. Consider switching to logback, log4j's successor. Logback is conceptually similar to log4j and if you like log4j, you should like logback even better. It has many nice features and is well-documented.

Disclosure: I am the founder of both log4j and logback projects.
