Pretty sweet logging wrapper.
I expect that we have to do the following: import the logger module get a logger instance from the root (or a child of the root) using getLogger. Namespace is defined as the name passed in argument to getLogger. Unfortunately, the Shinken log.py wrapper class does not support namespaces. (I am not a python king, so correct me if I am wrong.) Having used get logger create get a logger instance, it should have the logging level set from the root. Root instance having been defined by one of the daemons which set level based on the INI. For debugging specific classes, the module log_manager provides a way to have specific levels set for logger instances which could differ from what is defined in an ancestor. (parent, grandparent, ..., root) For now, I will edit my changes to use getLogger and at least match the logging level set from the root. If we want to use a different logging wrapper module, we can do a bulk update later on. Have a good week, this is one bear I want to have wrestled before 1.2.
