   > Curious: Why SLF4J instead of the Log4j2-api?
   
   Our entire ecosystem is build around SLF4J
   
   > Essentially the same (logging facade) with 2 advantages:
   > 
   >     * Better process (SLF4J has had a period of almost 2 years without any release).
   
   What better process? Full of features most peole don't need? More releases aren't better. SFL4J is just a facade while Log4J2 offery EVERYTHING. There is not much you need to do if the facade is done.
   
   >     * More features (also a formatted logger).
   
   Which we don't need, we barely manage to move off string concat.
   
   At the end, we prefer over simplily rather than busload of features.
   
   Log4J2, even as an API, is a no go for me.
