Well, BEEP is "interesting". We've started implementing syslog over BEEP; it should be out "soon". However, and this is the only reason I'm reluctant to discuss it, is that *at the moment* it carries the standard UC copyright, i.e. free for non-commercial and education, not free for commercial use. Just out of curiousity, is this non-GPL-ness a show stopper for lots of people? I think there is value in having more choices, and even a non-completely-free new syslog may help jump-start the rest of the community.

There are several syslog projects underway. We did ours because none of them were trying to be fully standards-compliant as far as we could tell (last year). --tep _______________________________________________ LogAnalysis mailing list LogAnalysisat_private http://lists.shmoo.com/mailman/listinfo/loganalysis
