I think ZTK should have a configurable log rotation built-in. Like: <logfile> path log.log formatter zope.exceptions.log.Formatter max-size 50MB old-files 5 </logfile>
I'd like to keep this out of the server: rotation is a system administration task where I'd like to rely on the policies and tools provided by the system environment.
