Log::any allows cpan modules to safely and efficiently log messages, while letting the application choose (or decline to choose) a logging mechanism such as log::dispatch or log::log4perl.

log::any has a very tiny footprint and no dependencies beyond perl 5.6, which makes it appropriate for even small cpan modules to use. it defaults to 'null' logging activity, so a module can safely log without worrying about whether the application has chosen (or will ever choose) a logging mechanism.

the application, in turn, may choose one or more logging mechanisms via log::any::adapter.
