[Gluster-users] rotating log files, again

On 3 Nov 2010, Phil Packer had asked about rotating log files.
While brick log files get rotated via the "gluster volume log rotate"
command, the question was left unanswered for logs like:

	 /var/log/glusterfs/nfs.log
	 /var/log/glusterfs/VOLUME.log

Is there any update on how we're supposed to rotate these files 
that's more friendly than shutting down glusterd, rotating them,
and starting up glusterd again?

Glusterfs is chatty in its logs, and I'd prefer not to have
those files grow very big.

Finally, as far as the brick logs go, is the intent that after they
are rotated we can just run a find(1) for old ones and delete them
as required?
