Can you help differentiate? I will combine them and eliminate the redundancy.

What I meant by this was the logging framework should hide the complexity of logging to different formats or logging different levels of output to different locations from the components. > > Section 6: Are the interfaces here meant to be Python interfaces, C > interfaces, or ? These are going to be Python interfaces. The revision will reflect this more clearly. > Going a bit further, I don't get the purpose of Find_Component or > Register_Component.

Register_Component is used with the logging facility to register the component of an application with the logger. Find_Component is would be used to locate the components of an application to modify the logging level of a particular component from the command line. > > > Section 7: I think some elaboration on the networking scenarios that > are expected to work is in order.

At the time, we were still investigating that.

I'll be sure to include that in my revision. > > Dave > _______________________________________________ > caiman-discuss mailing list > caiman-discuss at opensolaris.org > http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/caiman-discuss -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
