[Moved to Google Group from private email] Thanks for the response Graham.
Yes, the standalone version makes use of Python logging. It seemed that it was adding an additional and potentially unnecessary layer to use Python logging on top of the existing Apache multilevel logging given that Apache logging has the leveling needed. Is there anything inherently difficult or undesirable to making the Apache logging level control accessible that I haven't spotted? Threading comes to mind if the level setting is not in the actual log write method - I am not sure whether the wsgi.errors logger is per-thread or shared in a multiple thread per-process situation.
