+Change to Socket Listener Implementation
+========================================
+
+The existing socket listener implementation will be modified as
+follows: when a configuration message is received, an attempt will be

+and processed as before. If serialization is successful, then
+``dictConfig()`` will be called to process the resulting dictionary.
