Hi Charles,
Is the decision to use an in-house logging framework open to reconsideration? I'd be willing to do a first-draft cut on a transition to log4j, Sun's java.util.logging, or Apache Commons Logging (a thin indirection layer which can use either of those as an underlying backend) if there's agreement to do so.
Thanks for your offer. While our current log architecture seems to have covered most requirements (regarding the feedback we've got on it), I have no doubt it can be further improved, so your draft is welcome. Intuitively, I'd first stick with Java's default logging mechanism, as the BaseX core is supposed to work without any additional libraries (but of course we could switch over to other logging libraries if they are found in the classpath).
Just a short note from my side: I'd also propose SLF4J (at least for BaseX HTTP / Web App), since we already depend on it, because of Milton WebDAV.
