[slf4j-user] ehcache switched from commons to j.u.l and I see no log files

[John Cherouvim]

Hello Ceki

The code that changed is my dependency's (ehcache) and not my 
application code.
I just droped the jar into WEB-INF/lib
Is it possible to make logging work again without having to touch any 
code but only via configuration file changes?

thanks for your quick response
John
