One thing to note though is that akka-actor specifically avoided inclusion of any logging framework, thus this own implementation. It's about dependencies, as I remember, not about us not liking slf4j :)

First because if you mix ActorLogging the "log" is not compatibe with Slf4j Logger. Second because if you use Slf4j logging inside your libraries and utilities, it will block your actors. So it's a conundrum to have reusable components that need to log which you might want to use with or without Akka. I don't want my lower level components to depend on Akka or have an implicit actorsystem around just to log, but I want logging to be piped through Akka when I used them inside an Akka actor. For that I have put together a small library that makes it very easy to use an Slf4j Adapter which will work both with Akka and with the normal Slf4j / logback without Akka. You can find it here: https://github.com/larroy/SLF4J_Akka_logging_adapter Let me know what you think. I also think it would be great if one day it could be included in Akka, I don't believe I'm the only one with this problem.
