> The Log implementation, SimpleLog, uses getSystemResourceAsStream() to load the 
> simplelog.properties file. Using getSystemResourceAsStream(), instead of something like 
> this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(), or even better, 
> Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(), prevents the 
> properties file from being deployed with an application. This forces the developer to put the 
> properties file on the system classpath.
> Why was the decision made to only look on at the 
> system classloader? The LogFactory does a nice job of finding it's properties with 
> findClassLoader(). A similar implementation for SimpleLog would be great.
