[slf4j-user] Log4j bridge - deprecated functionality

[Mads Pultz]

That sounds perfect! I noticed that the current svn content only includes 
the getInstance() methods. Do you have any plans on implementing the other 
deprecated methods? See 
http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/apidocs/org/apache/log4j/Category.html 
for reference.
