Re: [OpenMap Users] OpenMap Debug vs Log4J

Hi Piotr,

The main reason I like the idea of the Java Logging API is that it's
built into the jdk. It does have the jdk 1.4 requirement, though,
which OpenMap doesn't have (yet). I've heard many good things about
log4j, too. We haven't really looked at the alternatives yet but
thanks for the input, it matters and helps.

Debug won't be changing for 4.6, though, we're going to make it a final
release sometime next week. We're in the process of wrapping in some
contributions (yours included) and last-minute API changes (projection
factory, maybe some localization framework if possible).
