As stated in another posting, there would be no dependency.
The discovery involves about 2 - 3 methods of small to medium
length, and would reside directly in the commons-logging code.

IMO, adding a dependency to commons-logging is a very bad idea considering
how many other projects use it and have no need for commons-discovery.  If
commons-logging was released with another dependency I would just keep
using old versions to avoid the new dependency :-(.
