You might expect me to argue against this, so here goes:

I think you're right - but this code is an exception.

module logging is official Python API. Apache logging maps really
easily onto official Python logging (yes - there are issues - but only
the same issues as with any multi-programming).

We could find all the things that could be done with logging. We
could. But that would be a very big project in itself.

Adding optional glue to connect Python logging to Apache logging is
not complex.

And I have already offered to maintain it. Search for me on Google if
you fear I am some fly by night flibberty gibbet who will run away
when the first question is asked.
