Description

Whatever the merits of slf4j, a quick solrj test should work.

I've attached a sample 1-line project with dependency on solrj-3.2 on run it prints:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/slf4j/LoggerFactory
	at org.apache.solr.client.solrj.impl.CommonsHttpSolrServer.<clinit>(CommonsHttpSolrServer.java:72)
	at com.mysimpatico.solrjtest.App.main(App.java:12)

Uncomment the nop dependency and it will work.
