I have an update of a draft RFC, not an already passed standards track document. If you want, I can bang it into shape. The original stuff was by someone else, who wanted to change the face of logging. That's just not going to happen, and they were kind of mistaken to try and get away from syslog, and they didn't provide real state information (both of which I don't do). Needless to say, the first one by the other author didn't pass the IETF, so it's a hard row to hoe. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
