The update to Logger looks okay to me.

I think the test could benefit from a comment to more fully explain why 
it checks that isLoggable has been called (as you say, the test is a bit 
obscure). A minor comment is that "levels" should probably be in 
uppercase. Also I assume the commented-out debug message in publish 
isn't needed.
