rsyslog 7.1.4 (v7-devel) released
This version implements the “missing bits” for full JSON handling: json support inside variable evaluation, the string concatenation operator and copying of full json trees in variable assignment. Most importantly, the json structure is now also persisted across disk-queues. The release also contains a number of bug fixes.

Changelog for 7.1.4 (v7-devel)
Version 7.1.4 [devel] 2012-09-19
- implemented ability for CEE-based properties to be stored in disk queues
- implemented string concatenation in expressions via &-operator
- implemented json subtree copy in variable assignment
- implemented full JSON support for variable manipulation
- introduced “subtree”-type templates
- bugfix: omfile action did not respect “template” parameter
… and used default template in all cases - bugfix: MsgDup() did not copy CEE structure
This function was called at various places, most importantly during “last messages repeated n times” processing and omruleset. If CEE(JSON) data was present, it was lost as part of the copy process. - bugfix: debug output indicated improper queue type
rsyslog 7.1.0 (v7-devel) released
This release kicks off rsyslog v7. Version 7.1.0 is very similar to v6-devel, except that it contains the important capability to work with hierarchical properties. Note that this version does not yet contain the new ruleengine work – this will be part of the next v7 release. This release is primarily intended for those interested in working with the hierarchical properties. Note that the code obviously is currently in a somewhat experimental state.
