Steve Ebersole updated HHH-3753:
--------------------------------

    Description: 
I would like to suggest that hibernate upgrade to SLF4J version 1.5.7

Several important bugs were fixed between 1.5.2 and 1.5.7. Just as importantly, 1.5.6 is more tolerant when there is a mismatch between the slf4j-api and its binding (e.g. slf4j-log4j12). The version mismatch problem (see [1]) seems to pose problems to several users.  We are taking this issue seriously. SLF4J version 1.5.6 mitigates this problem by alerting the user about SLF4J version mismatches. (Thus, instead of a mysterious exception, the user gets an explanation pinpointing the problem.) We are also working on making slf4j-api and its bindings to mix and match independent of their versions.

1.5.7 fixed a major compatibility issue wrt JDK 1.4 support.

Anyway, I think upgrading to SLF4J 1.5.6 would benefit hibernate users.
