Agreed. Perhaps we don't need to say here where it's written to - you've
already linked to the logging section. Instead just say:
**Log files**: Brooklyn writes info and debug log files. By default,
these are
written to the local filesystem. This can be reconfigured to set the
destination
and to increase or decrease the detail in the logs. See the
[Logging](logging.html) section for more details.
