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

Hi Patrick and Anthony,

If I may comment on this issue, I have recently had problems with Zookeeper and the verbosity of it's default logging. My problem is that a) the default logging is really too verbose in general and that b) including Zookeeper in your classpath causes Zookeeper's log4j.xml file to override established logging. To get around this I've actually had to repackage the zk jar without log4j.xml to tone down the logging.

Now, as for the issue above, I agree that most of those messages, if they are used for "debugging" they really need to be at the DEBUG level, not INFO. 

Love ZK! Keep up the good work!

Best,
JLS

> ZK logs a lot of uninformative trace and debug messages to level INFO.  This fuzzes up everything and makes it easy to miss useful log info.
