I'd vote for syslog as well. That's a standardized facility for
collecting unspecified 'diagnostic output'[*] from any number of
applications in a central place and it saves people using your
software (even it that's only you) to deal with another logfile
sitting in some random place (and presumably, growing and growing and
... until the disk is full)

	[*] No, that's not supposed to be an auditing log for 'events
	which occured on the system' although it is also used as such.
