[Python-Dev] Proposed changes to provide compression support for rotated log files

[Vinay Sajip]

In response to http://bugs.python.org/issue13516 I'm thinking of implementing
some changes in the rotating file handlers, as outlined here:

http://plumberjack.blogspot.com/2011/12/improved-flexibility-for-log-file.html

The changes (including tests) are almost ready to check in, but I thought I'd
give any one here who's interested a chance to comment, in case they can spot
any shortcomings of the approach I suggest.

Regards,
