Yeah, I think this was mentioned before. Depending on your IDE, you can cause a warning or error to be generated if certain packages are used, at least you can do that in Eclipse. I would only depend on log4j-api to have 100% BC. For other modules, we do our best not to shoot you in the foot, Appenders and such, but the util package is out of bounds IMO.
