the logging system to use something other then JDK logging.

We are considering using http://www.slf4j.org/. Check:

* SLFJ allows more flexibility for people using solr outside the
canned .war to configure logging without touching JDK logging.
The "con" argument goes something like:
* JDK logging is already is the standard logging framework.
* JDK logging is already in in use.
* SLF4J adds another dependency (for something that already works)
On the dev lists there are a strong opinions on either side, but we
would like to get a larger sampling of option and validation before
making this change.
[ ] Keep solr logging as it is. (JDK Logging)
[ ] Use SLF4J.
As an bonus question (this time fill in the blank):
I have tried SOLR-560 with my logging system and
