Hi Sean,

I'm currently working on moving away from the "built-in" logging to use 
log_config=<filename> and the python logging framework so that we can start 
shipping to logstash/sentry/<insert other useful tool here>.

I'd be very interested in getting involved in this, especially from a "why do 
we have log messages that are split across multiple lines" perspective!

Cheers,

Matt

P.S. FWIW, I'd also welcome details on what the "Audit" level gives us that the 
others don't... :)
