Ok, the overhead of having the legacy APIs are very low memory wise, and nil in terms of runtime performance. Regarding LogBack; It is an LGPL license, which has some additional restrictions from our liberal Apache License, so we are not totally Ok with depending on it. It is especially the requirement that downstream users must be allowed to fully reverse engineer the entire application built around it, that is the problem, since many/most commercial licenses will prevent that. That said; If we could get a "Classpath Exception" from Ceki, then I am Ok with depending on it, and interested in having alternate backends. "Classpath Exception" is the waiver of linked dependency does not constitute Derived Works, so that the reverse engineering clause doesn't trigger. We would also need to express this clearly. I'll ask Ceki straight away...
