Upgrading to this release is strongly recommended for users of the v5-devel branch.

rsyslog 5.9.0 (devel) released
This version starts a new development branch for version v5 which brings some new, not-so-intrusive features. This release includes enhancements for imfile, support for TCP KEEP ALIVE and a way to name actions (primarily for impstats).
Note that the main development activity is still focused at version 6.
So this release is only for those interested in the minor enhancements to v5.

rsyslog 6.3.1 (devel) released
This is a first implementation of a full-blown DNS cache. While there were some optimizations for DNS queries in older releases, especially UDP sometimes suffered under slow DNS resolution performance.
This is solved with the new dnscache module. Note that the module will undergo some more enhancements in the next couple of weeks. Feedback on its effect would be deeply appreciated.

rsyslog 6.1.8 (beta) released
This release begins the first beta branch for the v6 branch of rsyslog.
Note that the 6.1.7 version, released roughly a month ago was not functionally enhanced since then. We already begun a new branch that will become 6.3.0. So technically, 6.1.7 can be considered beta as well.
As such, we expect a quicker than usual beta cycle for version 6.1.
This release imports some bug fixes done to older versions as well as some minor enhancements (not affecting stability). An update to this version is useful for users of the 6.1 versions, but if you experience no problems, it the update is not urgent.
