PSR-3

Using PSR-3 placeholders properly

In the last 2 years or so, I've run into a number of projects that claim to use the PSR-3 logging standard as published by the PHP Framework Interoperability Group (PHP-FIG, or just FIG). Unfortunately, it's quite clear that those responsible for the project have not understood PSR-3 and how it is intended to work. This frustrates me greatly, as PSR-3's design addresses a number of issues that these projects are not benefiting from, and it reduces interoperability between projects (which was the whole point in the first place).

Rather than just rant angrily online (fun as it is, it doesn't actually accomplish anything), many of my PHP community colleagues encouraged me to blog about using PSR-3 properly. So, here we are.
