Sorry for missing this session :|
No travel funding this time.

Who can I work with on this please?

Ditto.

I've been doing some testing on cases like configuring a handler, then
not configuring that handler. So far I'm happy with how dictConfig is
handling it. My tests are published as gists so you can run them
yourselves:
    https://gist.github.com/lxsli/86d1abc851bd3d3d6d23f4dc8eaeec4a
    https://gist.github.com/lxsli/3ef859d641da7bcc9bd6

Please raise specific concerns so they can be tested and addressed.
