SLFJ4 bridge for the Maven logger

I'm writing a Maven 3.x plugin and want to log with SLF4J & Logback.

I found some SLF4J bindings for the Maven Logger:

However, these seem to be SLF4J bindings but I believe what I need is a bridge for the Maven Logger i.e. to bridge/route all Maven log statements to SLF4J and use LogBack binding with logback.xml config.

You can use SLF4J directly from Maven plugin since Maven 3.1:

The standard Maven distribution, from Maven 3.1.0 onward, uses the SLF4J API for logging combined with the SLF4J Simple implementation. Future versions may use a more advanced implementation, but we chose to start simple.

No bridges, bindings, etc. needed.

Your plugin should log through Log class. Logback is not required. Just forward all your logs to SLF4J and add jcabi-maven-slf4j dependency to the plugin. That's it.
