Hello, as developer engaged in an J2EE project I am always interested in Logging Services and a heavy user of first Log4j and later Commons Logging with Log4j.
During inspecting the new Log4j 1.3.0alpha Release I recognized a JDK Wrapper and a new Factory Concept (org.apache.ugli**). The idea to use a single interface which is not depending to the underlying log implementation is very good and not new. I am interested in the following questions: What is the reason for not using the Commons Logging interfaces (Both for Factories and Log)? Is/was there an discussion to "merge" the Apache Commons Logging and Log4j ideas/sources/goals? Are there technical reasons to not use Commons Logging interfaces/implementation (for example ClassLoading issues)? I am wondering especially about creating new interfaces which do not have backward compatibilty design goals. I apologize my English syntax and grammar.
