[slf4j-dev] Release of SLF4J 1.3.0

[Ceki Gülcü]

February 25th, 2007 - Release of SLF4J 1.3.0

This release consists of rearrangement of classes among projects. More
specifically, the org.slf4j.LoggerFactory class is now packaged within
the slf4j-api.jar file instead of the various slf4j bindings. It
follows that client code needs to depend on only slf4j-api in order to
compile, while the various slf4j bindings are only needed as runtime
dependencies. See also the Maven2-related FAQ entry:

   http://www.slf4j.org/faq.html#maven2

Bug number 23 has been fixed, at the cost of minor and backward
compatible changes. In other words, jcl104-over-slf4j now preserves
caller location information.

It is now possible to obtain the root logger of the underlying logging
implementation by requesting a logger named "ROOT". This feature was
requested by Sebastien Davids in bug report 35.

You can download SLF4J, including full source code, class files and
documentation on our download page, shown below.
