Hi Alfredo,

always answer to the list, so others may read along and/or chime in.

This seems to perfectly match the 'conventional meaning of the log
level' used for most POSIX system log daemons (e.g. the linux
syslogd).

I don't know how significant the level /names/ actually are - Maybe
all you can read from this is that level 0 gives the fewest and level
7 gives the most messages.
