Heh, I tried to make that clear in my initial posting with the "since there are other methods for adding/removing handlers" bit. I guess I could have been more explicit though as to what I'd tried. I generally figure that, if someone knows enough to dig into the stdlib's source code, they also know enough to use dir() and help(). Not *always* the case, but a good hint that they're past the basics. But I could have clarified my question more along the lines of "Should log.handlers be public/documented; should Logger grow clearHandlers() and iterHandlers() methods; or should I wantonly use log.handlers but then just get to keep both pieces if/when it breaks?" -tkc -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
