+    \section config_timesource Log message timing
+
+    One auxiliary aspect of logging is message timing. Each message is stamped with a time-stamp
+    giving the exact time the message was created. How the current date/time value is created may be
+    changed by setting a \e TimeSource. A TimeSource is an instance derived from
+    senf::log::TimeSource which will return the current universal time (UTC) when called.
+
+    By default, the logging library will call gettimeofday() for each log message. To change the
+    time source, just pass the new class or instance to senf::log::timeSource:
+    \code
+    // Use senf::Scheduler::instance().eventTime() to time log messages
+    senf::log::timeSource<senf::SchedulerLogTimeSource>();
+    \endcode
