[jboss-dev] Logging Opinions?

[Andrew Lee Rubinger]

https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBBOOT-61

In some effort to address frequent user feedback that our logging is 
difficult to weed through, I'm considering changing the server info dump 
to something like:

12:02:08,263 INFO  [JBossASServerImpl] Server Configuration:

Do we like the additional whitespace to separate this stuff out from the 
rest?  We've done a similar thing in EJB3 where we print out the target 
JNDI names.

Ultimately we should probably look at each INFO statement on AS boot and 
decide if it should really be there or not.
