+      slf4j-api-N.jar will run perfectly fine with slf4j-api-M.jar for

+      <p>Mixing mixing different versions of <em>slf4j-api.jar</em>
+      and SLF4J binding can cause problems. For example, if you are
+      using slf4j-api-${project.version}.jar, then you should also use
+      slf4j-simple-${project.version}.jar, using
+      slf4j-simple-1.5.5.jar will not work.</p>

+      <em>slf4j-api.jar</em>, and as long as the version of
+      <em>slf4j-api.jar</em> and its binding match, you should be
+      fine.

+
+      <p>At initialization time, if SLF4J suspects that there may be a
+      api vs. binding version mismatch problem, it will emit a warning
+      about the suspected mismatch.
