I can't find it either :-)

I've created a page specifically on this problem here:
http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-commons/Logging/StaticLog

As this is a somewhat complicated issue this page may well need
correction/improvement. This page is on a wiki so *can* be edited by any
logged-in person. However the issues involved are complex, so if anyone
out there wishes to make corrections then unless you are *absolutely*
certain you are right I would request that you reply to this thread,
post on commons-dev with subject [logging] or email me direct for
discussion before editing that page.

Regards,

Simon
