             Summary: Deprecate and disable Lumberjack and Log4j 1.x logger
                 Key: LOGGING-188
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOGGING-188
             Project: Commons Logging
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.2
            Reporter: Piotr Karwasz


The [Lumberjack|https://javalogging.sourceforge.net/] and [Log4j 
1.x|https://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/] logging backends have reach 
end-of-life in 2002 and 2015 respectively.

To provide a "secure by default" configuration the {{Jdk13LumberjackLogger}} 
and {{Log4JLogger}} should be:

 * deprecated for removal in 2.x,
 * disabled by default.

Users would need to enable these backends explicitly by setting the value of 
the property '{{org.apache.commons.logging.Log}}' to the fully qualified name 
of the logger ('{{org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Jdk13LumberjackLogger}}' or 
'{{org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger}}') in either Java's system 
properties or a {{commons-logging.properties}} file on the classpath.
