If I am right, then this is an FAQ. Each time I answer it, I plaintively wonder aloud why the -D flag would be the default, but I am generally ignored.
One reason is that without it, the server prints out nothing at all at startup, which is confusing to new users. To solve this two things need to be changed:
1. There need to be a possibility to set the error severity just like with stupid_log_file, even for printouts to stdoutput. Maybe the stupid_log_file could be made to be the standard way of logging, and it could log to stdout if no stupid_log_file was set?
2. The default level for stupid_log_file should be to print INFO and higher messages. Today the default is only to print PROBLEM and higher.
Or, add a new "zope is started" message that is logged at a severity IMPORTANT_MESSAGE, which is at the same level as a PROBLEM. That should be very simple to implement. -- Steve Alexander
