If *you* _choose_ to do this, then your next .jar (read that as "your new
log4j package") should be a _pure_ plug in replacement for the existing
.jar, no need to change _anything_ _anywhere_, right?
*You* changed the whole package name from org.log4j to org.apahce.log4j
without lifting a eyebrow. But doing this Category->Logger move which is
such a much more intuitive change you wont do.. Hmm..
