Hello jml, it was very nice to catch up yesterday.

It is deployed but apparently not yet working.  I will try to work out why.

It all hinges on the logging.  I wrote the code assuming that writing
to a logger would end up in a file synced to devpad where I could look
at it.  Instead apparently it all goes to mail to the sysadmins, where
it disturbs them and I can't easily see it.

I will pursue in parallel:
 1- getting it sent to a file
 2- getting some current typical failures to work out why it's failing
- I suspect something may be fiddling with the mail before it gets to
the production server, or something like that.  I hope the debug logs
will make it reasonably clear.
