Improvements
1. Removal of log4j from Syndeia clients
Starting with Syndeia 3.4 SP2, the Syndeia clients - MagicDraw plugin, Rhapsody plugin, and Standalone - have switched from using log4j (version 1.2.17) to logback (version 1.2.10) as the core library for logging services. Syndeia Cloud has always used logback as the core library for logging services. There is no change in the use of logback in Syndeia Cloud.
