 I meant that the SLF4J API is delivered with the Maven 3.1 installation

We already have org.apache.maven.plugin.AbstractMojo#getLog that
returns org.apache.maven.plugin.logging.Log
In Core, we inject SLF4J based implementation of Plexus
org.codehaus.plexus.logging.Logger
interface  [1].
So getLog() for plugins will stay in Maven "forever" and same with existing
availability o SLF4J API.

We are currently planning to raise the requirements for our plugins to
require Maven 3.1 so that they can also be used with SLF4J. Dropping Plexus
logging in Core is the next step to unify internal logging.
