logging version 0.9.6  
by Tim P.  
[http://logging.rubyforge.org/](http://logging.rubyforge.org/)

== DESCRIPTION

Logging is a flexible logging library for use in Ruby programs based on  
the  
design of Java’s log4j library. It features a hierarchical logging  
system,  
custom level names, multiple output destinations per log event, custom  
formatting, and more.

== CHANGES

2 minor enhancements

- Ruby 1.9.1 compatability
- JRuby 1.1.5 compatability

== NOTES

On JRuby, two of the tests do not pass becuase JRuby lacks support for  
Kernel#fork which is needed to test the syslog appender.

On Ruby 1.9.1, the lockfile gem has some warnings, but it should work as  
expected with the rolling file appender.
