Harry Metske commented on JSPWIKI-376:
--------------------------------------
Another MAJOR disadvantage of using slf4j is that you will lose programmatic
access to the Loggers.
This means you cannot dynamically change the loglevels via MBeans or some other
means. This is really necessary if you want to debug problems in large scale
wiki's where you cannot afford to turn on debugging and restart the wiki, or
even run with higher debuglevels for more than a few seconds.
Maybe we can pursue Ceki to implement these kind of interfaces in slf4j ?

>
> SLF4J allows far more flexible logging than log4j, and it would allow us to
> get rid of these dumb log4j compatibility problems that sometimes occur. It
> also plays better with other applications, gives the user more power to
> choose how to log his stuff, and is also pretty cool otherwise. The change
> would be relatively trivial, and would probably be largely invisible to the
> users (since we could continue shipping with necessary log4j jars).

> The license is MIT/X11, so that's fine.
> Opinions?
