Found 2 issues, not sure if they are blockers for the alpha02 level: 1) forgot to update the v3-users-guide with info about the logging update.
2) the generation of the api-change-report uses default configuration which worked up to now, but failed for this release because it compared a "deployed" version of 3.0.0-alpha02-SNAPSHOT with 3.0.0-alpha02 (and these are the same). Need to specify the previous release explicitly, I think.
