You should add the following or something similar to the FAQ:

pom.xml:

              <value>./src/etc/logback.xml</value>
            </systemProperty>
          </systemProperties>
        </configuration>
        <dependencies>
          <dependency>
            <groupId>ch.qos.logback</groupId>
            <artifactId>logback-classic</artifactId>
            <version>${lb.version}</version>
          </dependency>
...
        </dependencies>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
  <properties>
    <lb.version>0.9.15</lb.version>
  </properties>
</project>

If one just adds the dependency on logback-classic the BasicConfigurator will be used for Jetty, resulting in a lot of debug statements.

The important part is the systemProperty.

You might want to update the example at http://svn.qos.ch/repos/logback-demo/tags/STABLE also.
