Permission obtained from developer of slf4j-taglib (Matt Humphreys) to use code from that project. On previous projects I've worked on (Spring, FasterXML) I've had to sign a contributor agreement before my code could be accepted. If either Matt or I need to do this, please let me know.
I'll get started on this right away.
