[syslog-ng] Is there a standard for naming tag/value pairs when parsing

[Evan Rempel]

You are the last person I thought would point me toward the splunk CIM. 
Given the support that Balabit has put behind CEE and then lumberjack 
and even the experimental patternDB schema 
(https://github.com/balabit/syslog-ng-patterndb/blob/master/SCHEMAS.txt) 
I was sure you would steer me toward lumberjack.

At first glance the splunk CIM appears to be structured around and 
partially dependant on some of the data flows of the splunk product. 
I'll continue to review it but at this point I am still open to 
alternate suggestions.

Evan.
