Hello, we support several applications that rely on Apache Commons Logging and Log4j as implementation. After some years we got the budget to polish them. So we are currently considering how to update the logging framework those applications use. Log4j apparently received an update in recent time, whereas Commons Logging is unchanged since 2014.
So we are wondering if it would be a good idea to (a) propose pull requests via GitHub or (b) to migrate away from Commons Logging. Probably option (b) is the wiser choice as there has been a similar discussion in the related Jira Project, https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOGGING-136. Any official or unofficial comments and thoughts on this topic? Regards Christian Effertz
