  • Description:

    We should move away from Java Util Logging.

    It is well known that

    using it is not recommended for performance and also classloading nightware reasons (see http://articles.qos.ch/thinkAgain.html for details on the matter).

    (THIS IS ACTUALLY WRONG!)
    It touches us through PETALSESBCONT-323 too for the classloading problems.

    Also it could simplify our homemade MDC code (the ExecutionContext that is in easycommons-thread).

    We should evaluate what to use, but slf4j and logback have a very good reputation in the java community.
