On advice from this question, I updated requests to the most recent version from git to get proxies working. However, I see that the config kwarg is gone, preventing me from logging using config={'verbose': sys.stderr}, etc., in my code.
Where did it go? Is it still built in somewhere where I just can’t find it? It was very useful.
As indicated in the changelog, configuration was removed outright in 1.0.
Based on this question, it appears logging is performed and configured via the standard library
loggingmodule.
