Hi all,
as some of you may have notice, we still have logging
issues in GeoServer land due to the way the java logging ->
commons logging bridge is implemented.

Me and Martin have had a discussion on the topic on the
GeoServer ml, and it seems we've found a satisfactory
solution for the both of us. Full thread here:
http://www.nabble.com/Some-consideration-on-GeoServer-logging-tf4683523.html

The solution will involve changing the way GeoTools
grabs the loggers, as described in this issue:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-1545

Now, this is not a change in the API but a change in
the way we do things it is, in that we'll need to
setup a convention on how loggers are grabbed and
describe it in the developers guide.
Seems like something that needs to be turned into
a proposal.

At the moment codehaus is in troubles with confluence so
I cannot write the proposal right away, but I'll
write one asap. In the meantime I'd appreciate if
people could have a look at the thread and at the
jira issue and make up their mind for a voting on the
next GeoTools meeting.

And oh, to make it clear, what I'm proposing is
to do the above switch in 2.4.x too (otherwise it
would be useless for GeoServer for at least another
3-4 months). I believe what I'm asking is not unreasonable,
since the only change needed is basically an import statement
and a Logger.getLogger(xxx) to GT2LogFactory.getLogger(xxx)
(the name of the actual log factory class is in fact yet to be
determined).

Cheers
Andrea
