Markus Ueberall suggested to move to SLF4J <http://www.slf4j.org/>.
Through this facade nearly all logging frameworks are supported
(commons logging, log4j, ...).

If we'd move to SLF4J the user can use her favourite logging framework
by adding the particular lib to the class path.

AFAIK, tinyTiM itself does not use any logging (yet). The CXTM
serializer uses logging.

If we use SLF4J, we need two small jars (the SLF4J API and one of the
implementations, i.e. the one which uses Java logging).

What do you think?

Best regards,
Lars
