Chealer opened a new issue, #1460: URL: https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/issues/1460
## Description [The _Using Log4j2 as an SLF4J Implementation_ section](https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/api-separation.html#using-log4j2-as-an-slf4j-implementation) of the website's _API Separation_ page contains several outdated elements. For starters, Log4j 2.17 itself is fairly outdated, but most importantly, 1.7.32 is obsoleted by both 1.7.36 and SLF4J. The worse problem is the section refers to SLF4J 1.8, which was never released: > Note that if we were using SLF4J 1.8 instead of 1.7, that requires us to use log4j-slf4j18-impl instead of log4j-slf4j-impl. SLF4J does not have a 1.8 version. However, it does have version 2, which should not only be documented, but considered the default choice at this point. I know that POMs (Maven) force precise version so this section is doomed to remain, unless versions are removed (perhaps replaced by ellipses). But a note indicating that the versions are likely outdated would help. If I understand this section correctly, it should mention the term "provider", used by SLF4J to designation an "SLF4J implementation". -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
