> Hi all,

I would like to propose that we increase the verbosity of two 
> operations:

1) When a parameter file is parsed, I would like several 
> pieces of
information output via the "INFO" level of the logging 
> handler.  This
would be the current simulation time, the dimensions of 
> the domain,
and any cosmological parameters.
2) When print_stats is called 
> in the hierarchy, I would like to
include all of the cosmological 
> parameters.

The reason I'm bringing this up rather than just changing it 
> is that
in the past yt has (rightly) been accused of being too verbose 
> (in
fact, it was one of the first things Jeff said to me the first time 
> we
met to talk about yt!) and I don't want to increase 
> that
unnecessarily.  But, I feel strongly that as we move into more 
> codes
we need to be more upfront about what yt thinks of a given 
> simulation
output.  I think that this will also help ensure that errors 
> are
avoided.

+1/-1?
