I can help out with over half of the gump failures. Commons Logging deprecated Log4JCategoryLog a long time ago, when Log4J deprecated Category in favor of Logger.
C-L itself hasn't used Log4JCategoryLog for several releases, so this change will be transparent to the vast majority of Commons Logging users.

Ceki,
your action
caused a compilation failure of the following projects:
- commons-logging - velocity - ant
and, as a result, caused a drop in the gump's success from 83% to 53%, for more info see:
http://brutus.apache.org/gump/public/project_todos.html
Now, since this is a back incompatible change, we (the gumpmeisters) would like to know:
1) if you might be willing to revert the change if you did not intend to cause such effect
2) if not, if you are willing to move the previous version of the tree into a branch so that we can migrate the dependencies to that
3) if not, if you are willing to work with the offended dependees to restore their success status.
4) if not, if you have any alternative suggestion on how to move forward.
please understand that we have no preference in which road the log4j project decides to go, we are only interested in giving a chance to those 322 projects that were affected by this to keep having build information.
Thank you very much in advance for your cooperation.
