I see `log4j-boot` as a possibly light alternative to the logging part of Spring Boot. While configuring a logging backend with most APIs requires just the right dependencies on the classpath, users might still need some programmatic help to configure JUL. IMHO Log4j Boot could do just that, i.e. check if Logback or Log4j Core are on the classpath and either: * set the appropriate `LogManager` property if it is not too late, * or configure a JUL handler to forward everything to the right API.
