The pom.xml for v1.8.1 lists not only slf4j-api but also slf4j-log4j12 as a required dependency.

Is the log4j implementation actually required? Or can a project choose a different slf4j implementation? If it's the latter I'd suggest changing the pom.xml as explained in the slf4j FAQ.

Thanks

I already did disable it of course. But I'm disappointed at having to explicitly disable such an unwanted feature. Maybe it's useful for you to collect usage statistics, but for users I think it's actually useless (who's going to notice an INFO line in the server logs?) and potentially dangerous.

It's just not something I'd expect from a reputable software component.

Kind regards

Hi, and thanks for your great scheduler.

But would it be possible to know what's the rationale behind the new automatic update check that is enabled by default?

Honestly I simply don't get it. The last thing I want is for each and single jar library I include in a project to go and make an unrequested HTTP connection at startup, potentially causing unexpected issues for no real reason.

Many thanks
