[jira] [Comment Edited] (HTTPCLIENT-1664) Migrate away from Commons Logging to SLF4J

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1664?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14611915#comment-14611915 ]

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Commons Logging has design flaws, regardless of the missing features like value substitution and markers, [class loader issues|http://stackoverflow.com/a/3223701/696632]. Logback and [Spring Framework|http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/current/spring-framework-reference/html/overview.html#overview-not-using-commons-logging] describe the flaws quite nice. Additionally, you have always to swap Commons Log for another dependency commons log to slf4j.

Moreover, stable does not mean that it is wellsuited.
