Oh, sorry, I misread. Generally anything that isn't core is level 3 or 4. 3 is generally for application-informational messages, and 4 is generally used for debugging. As with log levels, though, we haven't ever formalized a definition, mainly because, as with log levels, common sense usually prevails. -- Tilghman _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-dev mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev
