I have several questions regarding to the changes:

* Do I need to take care that the messages are logged into the event log 
and on the console or can I safly use the logging package like::

   from logging import getLogger
   LOG = getLogger('MyLogger')
   LOG.debug('foo')

zLOG has logged the messages to the console when zope was started with 
runzope and the entries were logged to the event.log, too.

* Does Zope 2.7.0 has the new logging facility?

* If no: Will Zope 2.7.1 have the new logging facility or do I need to 
wait for Zope 2.8?

...

I'm chatting with Andreas Jung right now. He is telling me that the logs 
don't get printed to the console and that the log level is missing in 
the event.log
