Also, "binding" is the term SLF4J uses for implementations of its API, so that 
should make sense to SLF4J users looking for implementations.  Log4j 1.2 is an 
implementation of that API - the "real" log4j 1.x jars should not be used.  The 
JCL bridge is exactly that, a bridge between the Commons Logging jar and Log4j 
2 (the commons logging jar is required).
