Jeppe,

Certainly 2 has to be the way to go. We can add stuff to the
archetypes to ease this process for users. Moreover, we could add
specific lift modules that carried the right dependencies and boot
wire up to save the users writing boilerplate. i.e.:

+ lift-logging
\ - lift-log4j
\ - lift-logback

The overhead of this would be negligible. Thoughts?

Cheers, Tim
