Neon commented on LOG4J2-1302:
------------------------------

well, the current documentation is misleading. it should say that it is a 
log4j-api-slf4j-impl 
and it should probably have not to add log4j-core as runtime dependency. e.g.

The Log4j 2 SLF4J Binding description should be updated at 
https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.0/log4j-slf4j-impl/index.html
From:
The Log4j 2 SLF4J Binding allows applications coded to the SLF4J API to use 
Log4j 2 as the implementation.
To:
The Log4j 2 SLF4J Binding allows applications coded to the SLF4J API to use 
Log4j 2 API as the implementation.
and maybe under Usage section: put a note, that most user's will probably add 
*log4j-core* as a *runtime* dependency.

> After pulling in the log4j-slf4j-impl I was surprised to find out that I also 
> needed to add the the log4j-core dependency myself instead of the dependency 
> pulled in automatically from the log4j-slf4j-impl pom. I was expecting the 
> behavior provided by slf4j-log4j12 which does pull in the appropriate 
> implementation to get going immediately.
