New submission from Mike Fogel <m...@fogel.ca>:

Hi, there's been a fair amount of confusion over the interaction between 
logger.propagate and the ancestor logger's handlers and level.

http://bugs.python.org/issue7535
http://bugs.python.org/issue8327
http://bugs.python.org/issue9606

I think most this confusion could be avoided if the documentation for 
logger.propagate were expanded to explain clearly what happens when propagate 
evaluates to True - right now it just explains clearly what happens when it 
evaluates to False.

Attached is a documentation patch that does this.

Thanks for your consideration!
