The point I was making is that regardless of SLF4J's benefits, it is
still Yet Another Jar File. Given that almost *all* of the software
we are currently using in almost all of our projects (i.e., those
based in Java) uses log4j, we don't really need any additional choice
of logging system. log4j is very simple to set up and we've had no
problem with it.
But the problem is that it does not work for a whole lot of other
people. While you can afford to ignore that feedback, some of us
have to deal with it on a regular basis...
You solicited feedback on the proposal so I have provided that
feedback.
So noted ;-).
As I wrote, I would much prefer we keep things simpler rather than
not,
as JSPWiki's code base is getting remarkably more complicated as we
move to 3.0.
Actually, I think it's going to be simpler than 2.8... We'll have
more clean separation between the repository and the rendering.
Stripes allows us to get rid of the Command superstructure (and
replace it with a simple-to-understand ActionBean structure). The
API will make things more stable.
It's not the friendly little software package it was a
few years ago.
Well... All of our previous versions are still available ;-)
