As am off-topic example, Armin Ronacher kept on saying in various posts and
presentations that you couldn't use stdlib logging for web applications, that
there were fundamental problems with it. But when he actually sent me his
specific problem statement, I gave him a solution without spending too much time
on it (see
http://plumberjack.blogspot.com/2010/09/configuring-logging-for-web.html  if you
care). I'm not trying to be obstructive, honestly.

Since my application is also web server related, I was curious enough to look at this blog posting to see if it would be a good starter example that is missing from the manual. I don't think it is, as it is somewhat complex, although it is multi-module, and even multi-thread, so it might make a good example for other parts of the documentation (but maybe they already have good examples; I've only looked at the first 8%).

In trying to understand it, I couldn't figure out why the WebApp class needs to keep track of the threads that are running the that web app. Why isn't it good enough for the thread to know the name of the app? The filter copies the appName from the thread to the record; the InjectingFilter.filter not replace

        record.appName  =  tlocal.appName
        tname  =  threading.currentThread().getName()
        return  tname  in  self.app.threads

by

        record.appName = tlocal.appName
        return appName == self.app.name

and get the same effect, without needing to mainting the self.threads 
"database"?

Or what am I missing?
