Well frankly it is the other way around. End users should be able to specify exactly which log4j version they want to use. As well as they may run in a server which comes pre installed with log4j in the boot classpath. slf4j should *not* dictate which log4j version you should use. However as we just use it for testing, then we can take a short cut and possible remove the log4j in the pom.xml file. But for the examples we should not, as it can help show best practice to end users, that they can setup log4j dependency and control which version they want to use. > For camel-freemarker, do you know whether Freemarker use log4j as default > logging engine so that we have to set this dependency explicitly?
