Although codebase is not imported to Apache Zest yet, I am looking at removing the SLF4J dependency in Core.
As the first step, I want to remove the current logging that is in Core, simply because it is scattered and primarily in place to support a couple of development efforts in the past and not really useful to the user of QI4j. Second step is to provide a similar extension mechanism for Logging as for Metrics, and if people plugin a Logging provider, then that will be used. Third step is to migrate the LIbraries and other Extensions to use this SPI mechanism. Fourth step; Look into "useful" logging from Core, that make sense to users. WDYT?
