Subject: Custom level question

All,

I am adding a custom level for my application.  The level name is SESSION
and it has a severity level between INFO and WARN. Documentation says each
level must have a unique integer value.  I'm not sure how to define the
value for my level.  Looks like it could either be INFO + 1 or WARN - 1.
But, I am a little confused.  If the existing levels are in simple order,
doesn't INFO + 1 = WARN and wouldn't it violate the uniqueness rule.  Or, is
there some progression used to separate the builtin level values to make
room for custom levels.  Or, do I completely misunderstand how the builtin
levels are implemented?
