Where does one comment on these?

The problem is that they mention Java 8 support, but SLF4J doesn’t take 
advantage of any Java 8 features yet. No support for Lamda’s.  From what I am 
seeing the next release will support running in Java 9 and will leverage 
StackWalker and support Java modules but Ceki hasn’t mentioned if he is going 
to add to the API to support things users have been asking for.

I’d hate to see them base their standard on what was then the current release 
of SLF4J and then for it to be enhanced and they are stuck with a limited API.

I wonder how much input, if any, Ceki had in this.  

As a side note, he also changed the binding mechanism and I am not sure if it 
is backward compatible, soI have a feeling log4j-slf4j-impl will need changes 
to support that version.
