Custom logging in Rails apps - do you?
I used to use log4r but moved to Logging as it was dead. Not sure what's up now.

Can you recommend any resource to learn proper error handling (logging, reporting) for rails apps?
We've just switch to Semantic Logger (https://github.com/reidmorrison/semantic_logger) at work for logging in a context-sensitive way. All the logs are going back into the local database via a custom appender, which isn't ideal but at least puts all the data in an easy-to-query space.
