Second, I'm trying to get a handle on how libraries are meant to integrate with the applications that use them. The naming advice in the advanced tutorial is to use __name__ to name loggers, and to allow log messages to pass back up to the using application's logger for processing, but these two pieces of advice seem contradictory.. since log messages only pass back up to the root if the loggers are named hierarchically.
Here's the confusion. Each log named __name__ is under the root logger. If you want them all, then catch them all with the root logger.
In foo.py, change getLogger(__name__) to getLogger(''). Only the included modules need __name__. Or use two - one logger for setting handlers based on the root logger, and another based on __name__ for logging from the top level.
