Moved from slack per suggestion:

The documentation on logging for Maven seems of two minds:

"Maven uses [Plexus logging API][6] with basic Maven implementation
writing to stdout.
We have reached the decision that SLF4J is the best option for a
logging API: SLF4J has reached a certain level of ubiquity and while
SLF4J may not be perfect, it's the de facto standard and it's
pointless to try and remake another one. There are many
implementations to choose from, including Logback and Log4j2. All the
hard work has been done. All the bridges and funnels for other systems
function well, which allows others to use whatever logging
implementation they like in their components, while still being able
to have integrated logging."

Does this mean we can rip out the Plexus logging API and replace it
with SLF4J? In at least one plugin, the plexus logging API pulls in a
lot of plexus code we wouldn't otherwise need.
