In general I agree with everything you said, but had a few specific comments in line...

However, I think we should keep the DEBUG one and it should remain multi-line. I could not tell if you were saying the same wrt DEBUG.

However, I think it is reasonable to make this DEBUG. If you have problems the first reasonable thing to do is to crank logging to DEBUG if not TRACE.

But then it is kind of awkward to have 2 messages next to each other - the INFO saying JTA integration was enabled and then a DEBUG message saying which > > Maybe one solution could be to have all these ones tied to a > "org.hibernate.bootstrap" logger and thus have the ability to enable them > in one go. > I heard you made nice things in 6 about logging but I would like to improve > the situation in the stable version. > The specific changes on 6 are more what you mention. I break down each "subsystem" into a dedicated message-logger. The overall idea is to split the intended audience targeted by the messages into 2 groups. "Message logs" are more intended for users and DEBUG/TRACE logs are intended for developers (or "power users"). Message loggers use a different "logger name" scheme not based on class/package names but more of a symbolic subsystem name. E.g., from `org.hibernate.cache.spi.SecondLevelCacheLogger`[1], I grouped all caching related messages using the logger name `org.hibernate.orm.cache`. The reason is two-fold... First it is refactor-safe which is great given the intended audience. Secondly it allows for a more logical hierarchy of logger names. Also it groups all ORM-related logging under a single name, as opposed to having to use `org.hibernate` which affects logging for all Hibernate projects being used. `BootstrapLogger` was one I intended on doing as well already. This is all an on-going process as a task of opportunity, meaning I am doing that conversion as I work in the subsystem. Personally I think it does not make sense to make such changes in 5.4 though. Cleaning up the INFO->DEBUG stuff discussed above makes sense, I just mean re-organizing the loggers/names.
