Lewis John McGibbney commented on GORA-77: ------------------------------------------ Well you're absolutely correct, this ties in with my own experience as well as the bulk of the projects I've worked on utilise an Slf4j over Log4j approach, I suppose if we agree then this issue should be renamed accordingly. Put simply my justification to change this would be the following: - Slf4j would enable us with the logging abstraction, if users were not happy with Log4j they could change this accordingly within their own implementations. - Log4j provides us with a easily to tune, fine grained logger. Again depending on how a user wishes to implement logging within their Gora deployment, and the subsequent cost the can afford to do logging they can easily change the granularity. I must be open that I personally have not much experience working with commons logging, I've always had good experiences working with Slf4j & Log4j. Although it may sound slightly illogical to change something that isn't broken, I hope that the two points highlighted above would justify this issue. wdyt?
