Yes! Carla, are you the official dev reviewer for logging for Prelude? I
have a chapter on administering logging in the Admin guide, so I need to
know what a user has to do to administer logging. If there's no GUI and
no CLI for Prelude, then I guess it's about editing this new file.

*June:* I don't currently house any actual files in the Admin Guide.
Would the actual file go into a admin reference doc? Then I would link
to it from the logging tasks chapter?
