Hello all,

I am happy to announce the immediate availability of SLF4J version
1.7.30, a maintenance release fixing bugs with no new features.

Please refer to the the news page for more details on this release:

     http://www.slf4j.org/news.html

The relevant artifacts should hit the Maven central repository within
the next few hours.

The 1.7.x series:

The Simple Logging Facade for Java or (SLF4J) serves as a simple
facade or abstraction for various logging frameworks,
e.g. java.util.logging, log4j and logback, allowing the end user to
plug in the desired logging framework at deployment time.

The 1.7.x series adds varargs support in Logger methods.  Compared to
previous versions, 1.7.5 significantly improves logger retrieval
times. Users are highly encouraged to migrate to SLF4J 1.7.5 or
later.

Binary compatibility:

Mixing mixing different versions of slf4j-api.jar and SLF4J binding
can cause problems. For example, if you are using slf4j-api-1.7.1.jar,
then you should also use slf4j-simple-1.7.1.jar, using
slf4j-simple-1.5.5.jar will not work.

 From the client's perspective all versions of slf4j-api are
compatible. Client code compiled with slf4j-api-N.jar will run
perfectly fine with slf4j-api-M.jar for any N and M. You only need to
ensure that the version of your binding matches that of the
slf4j-api.jar. You do not have to worry about the version of
slf4j-api.jar used to compile a given dependency in your project. You
can always use *any* version of slf4j-api.jar, and as long as the
version of slf4j-api.jar and its binding match, you should be fine.
