    	I've written a couple of Perl-based frameworks for "generic"
    (for various definitions of "generic") parsing of log messages, but
    always just for very specific implementations.  I had been meaning to
    extend that to a more universal implementation for a while, but I just
    haven't had the time, and then Marcus Ranum announced that he was
    working on something similar so I shelved my work; I was just talking to
    him last week, however, and he confirmed that that project is dead in
    the water because of IP issues (the legal, not network, kind).  So I
    just thought I'd ping folks and see if anyone else was working on
    something like this.  If folks are interested, I'll gladly contribute
    advice/commentary (and potentially even some Perl code samples, although
    I'll have to clear some of that against other IP isssues of my own), but
    I wouldn't be able to devote any real time to the effort until probably
    next year at the earliest.
    	So, is anyone working (or interested in working) on a
    framework for something like this?
