One complaint I keep seeing is that libraries coding to the Log4j2 API would somehow result in problems with dependency configuration.
I have been fairly isolated from such kind of problems so I don't understand when this could happen and what might cause it. The only hint I got was a brief reply on twitter: "Problems I've had result in lots of slf4j exclusions in my maven deps. IIRC the biggest offender was Jersey, but I don't have access to the project anymore." When/why would it be necessary to have lots of slf4j exclusions in the maven dependencies? Is there something we can do (docs or otherwise) to help with this? (Not sure if/how the log4j-boot project would help with such issues, I never used Spring boot.)
