Maven2 bootstrap pom.xml for Scala with SLF4J and no-commons-logging

Following an older post, this is the pom I use as a starting point for Scala project which uses maven.

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd">
 <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
 <groupId>org.test</groupId>
 <artifactId>test</artifactId>
 <packaging>jar</packaging>
 
 <version>0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>

 <properties>
  <!-- UTF-8 for everyone -->
  <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>

  <!-- Other general properties -->
  <slf4j-version>1.6.0</slf4j-version>
  <logback-version>0.9.20</logback-version>
  <scala-version>2.8.0.RC2</scala-version>
  <scala-maven-plugin-version>2.13.1</scala-maven-plugin-version>
  </properties>
