Hi out there,

This is the first post to this list, so this serves as a test message too.

I would like to announce that the first snapshot (version 1.1.1) of the
development branch has been released.

As you may know syslog-ng is under a complete rewrite, and several
important parts of syslog-ng has not been implemented yet, therefore this
version is _NOT_ intended for production use. This version is meant to be
the proof of the concept.

The new syslog-ng uses a semi-OO style, borrowed from lsh, a GNU GPLed
ssh clone developed by Niels Moller.
(http://www.lysator.liu.se/~nisse/archives) Look for the file HACKING within the lsh archive.

This version implements:
* file sources and destinations
* unix sources
* configuration parsing

So it is enough to see how it is working. An example syslog-ng.conf file
is included.

Happy hacking,
--- Bazsi
