Hi,
I am currently working on updating the 3.4 adminguide, and releasing updated drafts every few days. The current version already has two short sections about junctions and channels (and a bunch of smaller updates as well).
yay, this is great news. glad you could make it. some notes below:
http://www.balabit.com/sites/default/files/documents/syslog-ng-ose-3.4-guide...
* junctions can use flags(final) in order to avoid processing the rest of the channels if one matches * it might make sense to emphatize that if multiple channels process the message, multiple outputs will be generated. * another use case: with junctions, channels and inline drivers, you can associate processing with the source driver, so it automatically emits well formed messages.

ah, I can see that this discusses the use case I was talking about. A referral might help between the two chapters. a bit more step by step tutorial would be useful, junctions are a complex concept.
Any feedback, comment, clarification request, or real-life use-case is most welcome.
I hope to release more stuff on Friday, and also to write a list of the new features that are already documented.
Kind Regards,
Robert
