Or just log4j? Should "log4j-core" be "log4j-impl"? Why is it slf4j-impl and not log4j-slf4j-impl or log4j-slf4j? Why is it log4j-jcl and not log4j-jcl-impl? It seems we should have a naming pattern for bridges to other logging systems, either the name or name-impl. We could then have: - log4j-impl - log4j-jcl-impl - log4j-slf4j-impl and: - log4j-api Then the combos: - log4j-all - log4j-standalone Gary > > Ralph > > On Nov 1, 2012, at 6:51 AM, Paul Benedict <pbened...@apache.org> wrote: > > I may have misunderstood, but I'll give it another shot! > > I don't like combined jars.
