Hi Paulex,

I've implemented custom LogManager (see attachment): it sets value for root
logger's level different from default value(INFO). According to my test (see
attachment) RI doesn't change level of root logger.

The test prints the following:
$java -classpath . MyTest
INFO
$java -classpath . -Djava.util.logging.manager=CustomLogManager MyTest
SEVERE

Did I missed something?

Thanks,
Stepan.
