Jukka Zitting commented on JCR-215:
-----------------------------------

There was a discussion [1] on the mailing list about this early this year. The 
conclusion [2] was to wait for the toolkit-independent UGLI layer to mature.

Since then the UGLI project [3] has been renamed and moved to the Simple 
Logging Facade for Java (SLF4J) project [4] that is currently at beta 7 of 
version 1.0.  The SLF4J beta jars are already available at the Ibiblio Maven 
repository.

I believe now would be a good time to migrate from log4j to slf4j. Any 
objections?

>
> The code is written against the Log4J APIs, which forces all users of 
> Jackarabbit to pick up log4J dependency and to juggle with JDK logging and 
> Log4J configuration if other components of the project uses JDK 1.4 logging.
> If the code is move to depend on Apache commons-logging this issue will be 
> resolved. Also this should be a minor fix.
