Well... since the documentation for SLF4J is very clear and easy to
understand, I don't really see a reason to abandon it. Personally I
think the (original) choice for this logging facade was perfect
(especially since you can change the actual logger on the spot, without
any code changes).

Hi,
I know SLF4J is a great logging framework for us, but I encounter with
many questions with configuring SLF4J to work with one's favorite
logging frameworks very often, via ML, IRC or personal e-mail.
IIRC, we already talked about providing a way to choose the logging
framework, but I thought it might worth to raise this issue again
because our community grew up since then. It might be a good idea to
make MINA independent from any logging framework by default and let
users choose it, like some libraries do:
IoLogger.setInstance(new Log4JLogger());
Basically it will remove the red tape for any users who are not
familiar with SLF4J logging framework, because most people are very
used to what commons-logging does or just to log4j or
java.util.logging. WDYT?
