I think using LOGGING is a bit better.  

BTW, this is documented in (info "(Org)In-buffer settings") :

| logging          | record a timestamp when an item is marked DONE      |
| nologging        | don't record when items are marked DONE             |
| lognotedone      | record timestamp and a note when DONE               |
| lognotestate     | record timestamp and a note when TODO state changes |
| logrepeat        | record a note when re-instating a repeating item    |
| nologrepeat      | do not record when re-instating repeating item      |
| lognoteclock-out | record timestamp and a note when clocking out       |

But the docstring of `org-log-done' doesn't mention all these options.

And (info "(Org)Progress Logging") should mention all these option
somewhere, or at least link back to the in-buffer settings back.
