[slf4j-dev] Fwd: Re: UGLI replaced by SLF4J

Hi Jake,

Nice of you to join in. :-)

The current levels are not definitive. If participants want other
levels, they could be easily accommodated. We only need user input to
make the change.

Library code probably does not need log at TRACE level while in
production, but it may need it while in development.
