RE: [Htmlunit-user] log4j

[Brad C. <yo...@br...>]

log4j exists because I have pdfbox, which directly uses log4j so I must have it.
Both of these things were there before the updates and only now do I see the
warnings from httpclient.

Maybe I just need to go complain in comp.java.centralized.logging.sucks or something
:)
