I think something is off with our logging (ugh, I know) dependencies. We depend on commons-beanutils (in and of itself a situation about which I'm personally not so thrilled, TBH), which in turn depends on commons-logging, but for the fact that we exclude this dependency. This places a burden on the user to know that he must account for commons-logging in some fashion, with no indication to that effect. It would seem more proper to remove the exclusion so that the user *sees* the transitive dependency and can decide how to handle it if he wants to exclude/replace it.
Thoughts? Matt
