I still say the answer to "should logging be done by the application or server?" is "neither". We need a component that covers the "everything else" of WSGI; that is, the environment in which servers and applications are instantiated, connected, started, stopped, and shut down. Logging should be offered by that component. http://www.cherrypy.org/wiki/WSPBSpec Robert Brewer [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Web-SIG mailing list Web-SIG@python.org Web SIG: http://www.python.org/sigs/web-sig Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/web-sig/archive%40mail-archive.com
