Clarification on Levels

Ceki,

I'm uncertain from reading the JavaDoc and the short manual what the correct
hierarchy is for the Levels. Can you confirm it for me so I can put it into
the "how to" and get it correct?

The short manual specifies the order is: "DEBUG < INFO < WARN < ERROR <
FATAL"

The JavaDoc doesn't seem to say, and the two places I see references to the
list of levels, they are in different orders:

JavaDoc Field Summary table:  DEBUG ERROR FATAL INFO WARNING

JavaDoc Field Detail: Fatal, Error, Warn, Info, Debug

Is the short manual correct?

I'm not sure who does the JavaDoc, but it might be a good idea to have the
relationship between the levels added somewhere, since the relationship
between the levels is critical to determining what gets logged, correct?

Dave
