 BEHAVIORAL CHANGE
-
++
 As https://www.couchbase.com/forums/t/embracing-slf4j-in-couchbase-java-sdk-3-5/36474[previously announced], the SLF4J API is now a required dependency, and the SDK does all logging through SLF4J. The following client settings for customizing logging behavior are deprecated, and no longer have any effect:
-
-    `logger.disableSlf4J`
-    `logger.fallbackToConsole`
-    `logger.consoleLoggerFormatter`
-
+** `logger.disableSlf4J`
+** `logger.fallbackToConsole`
+** `logger.consoleLoggerFormatter`

 If your project does not already use SLF4J, please follow the announcement link for details and a mini-migration guide.

 The Bucket Manager API is now forward-compatible with future versions of Couchbase Server that might support storage engine types other than "magma" and "couchstore".

 ==== Bugfixes

 * https://issues.couchbase.com/browse/JVMCBC-1264[JVMCBC-1264]:
 DNS SRV lookups now honor the DNS search path.
 This enables DNS SRV resolution in Kubernetes environments where the `*-srv` hostname advertised by the Couchbase Operator is a partial name that must be resolved using a suffix from the DNS search path.
 * https://issues.couchbase.com/browse/JVMCBC-1426[JVMCBC-1426]:
 When Couchbase Server is too busy to start a new KV range scan, the SDK now retries instead of throwing a `CouchbaseException`.
