Thanks for starting the review early on.  Some comments:

I'm not sure that I understand the difference between the bulleted list 
in section 3 (which appear to be requirements) and section 5,  Design 
Requirements.  Can you help differentiate?

Section 3: Don't understand the last requirement in the bulleted list - 
"... without the overhead of output".  What does this mean?

Section 6: Are the interfaces here meant to be Python interfaces, C 
interfaces, or ?  Going a bit further, I don't get the purpose of 
Find_Component or Register_Component.  Finally, won't we also need 
interfaces for locating and displaying logs (how would the GUI installer 
at least replicate what it currently offers in displaying the log)?

Section 7: I think some elaboration on the networking scenarios that are 
expected to work is in order.  Are you intending that remote logging 
could cross a firewall?  If so, what are the technologies that are used, 
and what server-side support is required?

I presume that we'll make a decision on section 8 in the final version 
of this document.

I'd recommend that the use cases include demonstration of how the 
application would be coded to use the API.

Dave
