Hello all. I just have a couple of questions on why things are like they
are with the latest castor(cvs).

First up is the logging. Is the main logging mechanism supposed to be
commons-logging or log4j? Or do they act together to provide to
different functionalities? Also, I noticed that the log4j package was
not included with castor. Any reason for this? (license issue, bloat,
etc...) I found that with out the log4j package I wasn't getting nearly
enough logging, and I had no way to define the detail of logging, no
log4j = no log4j.properties file.

Also, for the class path of the jar file. Any reason we can't put the
required jar files in the castor manifest so it finds them with out the
application programmer needing to add these in their own classpath. They
are required after all so why not code them in?

I also noticed with the latest cvs an issue with the default cache type.
I thought it was supposed to be count-limited with a count of 100, but
it defiantly not. I'm not sure what it was set to but if I was getting
expired objects with only 1-5 objects in the cache. Changing the type
manually to cache-type with 30 count fixed the problem, and acted as
expected.

I guess that's all for now. :)
