I put that item in because JP had requested it. JP +1'ed Style C/Sun
indentation, which makes you and me happy, so I'll happily give him his
logging preference of choice, as long as it's a competent solution, and
it is, so that's good enough for me. On a team, you have to give and
take to make everyone happy.

I've followed this debate for years now and it's hard to really justify (to
my mind at least)
not simply going with Log4j. It's all but a standard. I've used the JDK's
logging facility
and SLF4J and there simply is no added benefit to a facade API. The only
real justification
would be a project where one didn't want to use *any* additional libraries.
As JSPWiki
is hardly in that category I'd recommend simply including the log4j.jar
file and being done
with it. Log4j works fine and pretty much the entire Java community knows
and uses it.
Having a facade over it doesn't really provide any benefits and makes log
configuration
just a bit more complicated, especially when JSPWiki is being used in a
mixed logging
environment.
So I'd be interested in hearing the arguments in favour of SLF4j, i.e.,
what actual gains
are expected.
