Yanel uses log4j, dunno what the default config says though.
Log4j has functions like log.warn(), log.debug(), ...

That means someone wrote log.warn("DEBUG: ..."). Probably for debugging
and to avoid having to change the configuration, but then forgot to
remove the logging statements I guess?

IMHO they should be replaced by log.debug(...) or removed all together.
