Apache log4net 2.0.17 addresses reported issues:

Bug fixes

NullRefException from shutdown in 2.0.16 fixed in Fast fix for NullRefException from FileAppender" (by @erikmav)"

Complete diff

2.0.16

A big thanks to @FreeAndNil for doing all the hard work of collating changes.

Bug fixes

Support converting '.NET TP Worker' to the numeric thread ID on .NET 8+ (by @erikmav)
Fix typo in RemotingServer App.Config (by @craigdfrench)
Fix CodeQL Password in configuration file Rule False Positives (by @justinmichaels)

2.0.15

Attention: .NET 3.5 Client Profile is no longer supported. I'm really sorry, I've tried to keep as many of the legacy targets available as possible, but after spending another 4 or so hours trying to get net35-client to build on any machine, I've given up - as far as I'm aware, this should only affect Windows XP clients. I'm afraid 2.0.14 was the end of the road for you. Apache log4net 2.0.15 addresses reported issues:

Bug fixes

Improper usage of xml namespacing for netfx targets after a netstandard update ( LOG4NET-685, related LOG4NET-683)
Locking hashtables during write in RenderMap calls to make them thread-safe ( LOG4NET-646)
An issue where RollingFilAppender would sometimes overwrite files instead of rolling them ( LOG4NET-672)
