Exactly. The <logger> element on [1] isn't an assembly name, it's a type
name and a /file path/, comma-separated. Not sure if this qualifies as a
"fully qualified name" as the docs say.

I just realized this yesterday, but it should make it possible/preferable to
move the ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.MsBuild.dll into a common tools dir,
like so:

<msbuild>
  ...
 
<logger>ThoughtWorks.CruiseControl.MsBuild.XmlLogger,..\..\tools\ThoughtWork
s.CruiseControl.MsBuild.dll</logger>
</msbuild>
