     1.4 +The Log::Agent module provides an abstract layer for logging and tracing,
     1.5 +which is independent from the actual method used to physically perform
     1.6 +those activities.
     1.7 +It acts as an agent (hence the name) that collects the requests and
     1.8 +delegates processing to a sublayer: the logging driver.
     1.9 +
    1.10 +The Log::Agent module is meant to be used in all reusable components,
    1.11 +since they cannot know in advance how the application which ends up
    1.12 +using them will perform its logging activities: either by emitting
    1.13 +messages on stdout and errors on stderr, or by directing messages to
    1.14 +logfiles, or by using syslog(3).
    1.15 +
    1.16 +The logging interface is common for all the logging drivers, and is
    1.17 +therefore the result of a compromise between many logging schemes:
    1.18 +any information given at this level must be either handled by all
    1.19 +drivers, or may be ignored depending on the application's final choice.
