I dont understand the need for the "Proposed Boost logging library". A
perfectly good and flexible logging library exists in the form of
log4cxx, which is much more flexible than the proposal, has a ton of
tools, appenders, is compatible with log4j/log4net etc etc (for those of
us who live in multiple worlds). log4cxx is going through a almost
complete rewrite, but is still eminently usable. see
http://logging.apache.org/log4cxx/
