Logging Conventions

The following conventions for severity levels (specified as first argument in ns_log) should be used.

Notice: Something interesting occurred. A "notice" shows typically a state change, start/end of some jobs, etc. This level can be as well used of temporary debugging, but such messages should be removed after some time.
Warning: Something that could mean something bad occurred. A "warning" indicates an unexpected situation, which requires attention of an developer and a corrective measure in the not-to-distant future. Usage of deprecated code or code using not following the engineering guidelines are of such type.
Error: Something bad occurred. An "error" is a malfunction, that must be investigated by a developer. An error is an unhandled exception. The error.log file should be free of errors.
Bug: Something occurred that implies that there is a bug in the code.
Debug: This logging level is typically just activated during debugging.
Dev: This logging level is typically just activated during development to inspect the behavior of new code. Such logging statements are typically removed once development has reached a stable point.
