Description
AbstractMojo currently defines it's own Log interface, hard coded to use System.out. This really restricts the logging capabilities of all plugins. It would be nice if it attempted to look up the plexus role "org.codehaus.plexus.logging.LoggerManager" first and only used System.out if that failed.
Doing this would also go a long way towards resolving MNG-2570 and MNG-3305.
I'm not sure coupling to plexus is a good idea (even if most other things are). The embedder already does handle directing this to the plexus logger, not system.out specifically.
