Does python logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler allow creation of a group writable log file?

Here is a slightly better solution. this overrides the _open method that is used. setting the umask before creating then returning it back to what it was.

class GroupWriteRotatingFileHandler(logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler):    
    def _open(self):
        prevumask=os.umask(0o002)
        #os.fdopen(os.open('/path/to/file', os.O_WRONLY, 0600))
        rtv=logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler._open(self)
        os.umask(prevumask)
        return rtv
