I would like to put my request in to make log4j the logging api to be shipped with jdk1.4 (merlin).  I'm a consultant that does mostly java/j2ee consulting with large companies and I've come to depend upon log4j as a logging tool for all my applications.  Once the jdk is shipped with a default logging api I'm afraid that most customers will automatically believe that this is a superior api, although I haven't been able to use the jdk1.4 logging api yet, since it is only in beta release I can't completely compare it against log4j so I must depend upon others to help educate me about it's merits or lack there of.  So this is my polite request to make log4j the default for jdk1.4.

thank you
