I am happy to announce that rsyslog 1.14.0 has been released today. Thanks to Peter Vrabec of Red Hat, this release now contains IPv6 support. Currently, IPv6 is only supported for UDP. There are also a few nits that need to be ironed out. However, the code is reasonably complete, so I decided to release it now. It is too good to stay hidden until IPv6 TCP is implemented. I would really appreciate any implementation reports, comments and such from IPv6 environments. I have very limited testing capabilities and so I am pretty much depending on the user base.
IPv6 and removal of the nits will be focus of the upcoming next releases. If you run rsyslog on an important production box, I recommend waiting for the next release before you upgrade.
Besides IPv6, there were some minor cleanups and a fix to the Red Hat init script - see changelog.
