[slf4j-user] SLF4J library using an image

[jakartaman]

Hi people,

This thread seems to be going places...

 > Arrows

I tried to avoid arrows because they don't seem right.

For example the SL4J API has the feeling of an "edge" or "surface 
between blocks" not a vector or a flow. But it's ultimately down to 
taste. Not that I have a degree in visual arts or anything.

Looks good. Two things:

- I suggest to use another color for the SLF4J binding artifact instead 
of the red contour.

- I suggest to modify one part of the "legacy" diagram like so - blocks 
on same height, same side:







But what about this "no arrows" approach (ugly hack as I am a bit 
time-limited currently) :






Best regards,

-- David
