[slf4j-user] Slightly OT: configuring Hibernate logging level and SLF4J using JDK 1.4 logger

[Robert Elliot]

You are misunderstanding the entire SLF4J/Logging paradigm.  You don't tell Hibernate (or SLF4J) what to log - you tell the logging backend what to do with the messages Hibernate logged.  And to do that you need to configure the logging backend.
