there any support you would like to see included directly in SLF4J that
could make life easier for you?
Thanks for offering. We don't want to host a logging bundle effort
here. So, some basic features we need:
o Best thing you could do is bundlize existing jars. The manifest
header entries needed for OSGi won't affect anybody. At a minimum you'd
add export statements. Adding an Activator like John's would add a
compile time dep on OSGi framework API.
o Logging bundle retrievable from M2 repos.
o Basic export statements in manifest header for logging packages,
namely org.slf4j and org.apache.log4j.
o A way to reset logging levels without stopping the whole server.
When John submits his logging Activator via JIRA you could take that
over. Resetting logging levels by stop/starting the logging bundle is a
fine way.
