An interim version was accidentally released to the web. It was named 3.14.0.
To avoid confusion, we have not assigned this version number to any
official release. If you happen to use 3.14.0, please update to 3.14.1.
Version 3.14.1 (rgerhards), 2008-04-04 V3 STABLE
bugfix: some messages were emited without hostname
bugfix: rsyslogd was no longer build by default; man pages are
only installed if corresponding option is selected. Thanks to
Michael Biebl for pointing these problems out.
bugfix: zero-length strings were not supported in object
deserializer
disabled atomic operations for this stable build as it caused
platform problems
bugfix: memory leaks in script engine
bugfix: $hostname and $fromhost in RainerScript did not work
bugfix: some memory leak when queue is runing in disk mode
man pages improved thanks to varmofekoj and Peter Vrabec
We have removed the 32 character size limit (from RFC3164) on the
tag. This had bad effects on existing envrionments, as sysklogd didn't
obey it either (probably another bug in RFC3164...). We now receive
the full size, but will modify the outputs so that only 32 characters
max are used by default. If you need large tags in the output, you need
to provide custom templates.

It seems I haven't fully grokked your versioning scheme yet. I thought the successor of 3.13.0-dev0 would be 3.13.0... (especially as you created a Branch_Stable_3-13 cvs branch).
Aside from that, is 3.14.0 now the recommended stable version or is it still 2.0.4?
As I wrote in earlier posts, 3.13.0-dev0 was an experiment. On the mailing list, it became clear that it wouldn't work out in that way. Same goes to cvs branches. Currently I am going with even/odd on the minor release number as written on the mailing list. But I will update that soon (waited for feedback).
There will be two stables probably as of today v2 stable -> 2.0.4 for the ultra-conservative and v3 stable --> 3.14.0 for those with the need for more fetures. Development continues with 3.15 and 3.17. Please note that I have tweaked 3.14.0 a bit and have unfortunately forgotten to remove this post here. So the final 3.14.0 will be announced today and will have a different md5sum... :(
