Hi Daniel, thanks for the quick reply. And you are of course right.
Luckily I don't care about the specific G1 message. After setting everything up, I was looking for _anything_ that logs a message and that was the first thing I came up with. Forgot the "platform classes" in the first sentence. :( Any idea what else I could use that logs messages via the new API? so long ...
