Hi all,
Rsyslog 3.10.0 has been released today. It is the initial release of the v3 development branch. It offers many new features, among others loadable input modules and a much enhanced threading model. Rklogd is now tightly integrated as an input plugin. UDP listeners can now be bound to specific local interfaces/ports and multiple of them can be run concurrently. There are many other enhancements. This release has a number of known backward compatibility issues, be sure to review the compatibility information in the documentation set. Rsyslog v3 is not yet recommended on production machines.
The primary reason for this release is that we would like to gain some experience from the field. However, given the magnitude of change, the code looks quite solid.
Please note that even though the first v3 version has been released, I will continue to add features and capabilities rapidly. Expect new releases soon. As always, feedback is highly appreciated. It would be
most valuable to make the v3 branch a practical alternative on production systems.
