-package log
+// Package static provides a simple static logger implementation for easy migration of existing pre-v2 code.
+//
+// The package is usually imported aliased as "log" to be compatible with the v1 approach.
+//
+// The static logger instance needs to be initialized during startup of the application using SetLogger.
