[mod_python] apache's log and hook api in mod_python?

Hi Graham,

Wow, that information sounds good enough!  Sorry for that I haven't been 
able to check the doc thoroughly.  Thanks a lot for your prompt response.

For my second question, actually it is unrelated with the first one.  In 
Apache 2's C api, we can create a hook in a module, and all the other 
modules are able to call that hook at any time.  I am wondering if 
mod_python allows us to create our own hook (using python), and other 
modules (probably C implementations) can call that hook.

Thanks.
