[python-win32] Passing an object to a process

[Randy Syring]

I've used the multiprocessing module to send data between processes:

http://docs.python.org/library/multiprocessing.html

But, its only in 2.6 and newer.  Since they are all separate processes, 
you could spawn a logging process and your worker processes as processes 
that use a newer python and then use multiprocessing.

Another option might be to send the log messages to a database and then 
have some process be responsible for pulling those messages out and 
writing to a file (if needed).

Just some thoughts.
