Re: JEE Logging Standard Specification

No - I've never joined the JCP. After the Harmony debacle I haven't had much love for Oracle.  However, it would be a great achievement if someone could deprecate JUL - or at least enhance it so that it could at least use a ServiceLocator to find an implementation instead of what it does now.

I'll look into whether I'd want to join the JCP and then follow up if I do.

I've discovered that just to get logging to work properly in the various ways it can be deployed in JBoss that I am going to have to split out the ContextListener into its own jar so that it can always be included in the web app.  I haven't even tried EARs or SARs yet with JBoss but I'm sure it won't be pretty.

There doesn't seem to be any good way of not getting a warning from SLF4J that it has found multiple bindings.  Part of the problem here is that JBoss is including a bunch of stuff for its own use and as a byproduct, exposing that to applications. OSGi or modules are supposed to help deal with that. I haven't tried JBoss 7 yet to see how much progress they have made.
