[slf4j-user] What is the correct jcl-over-slf4j license?

[Ceki]

Hi Michiel,

Given that jcl-over-slf4j is based to a large extent on commons-logging, 
it is licensed under the Apache License as attested by the LICENCE.TXT 
file under jcl-over-slf4j/ folder in the source code and every java file 
under jcl-over-slf4j/.

I hope this clarifies the matter,
