Hy guys, this PEP is very well written, and I have found the discussion inspiring.
Every time I use the logging module, I have the configuration hardcoded in the application. That is why I never used the configuration file based approach. Now I will give it a try..... I think we should discuss the following scenario (it was not clear in the PEP for me) : an application has the logging configuration in a config file and it is currently running. The user edits this file, so the configuiration in the running process should be changed. -- How will be the logging mechanism reconfigured? -- How can the logging module guarantee that there will be no data loss during the reconfiguration process?
