Barend raised the issue, presumably because he was interested in logging from his library.  I know that we log a good deal from our internal libraries, but they aren't libraries like those in Boost.  What would prove unacceptable is for each Boost library wishing to log something to create its own API for doing so, unless the number of such libraries is close to one.

I certainly agree that IF any boost library would want to log, we should 
discuss in which way to do it. It is just that I fail to see which one 
would actually want that.
