Well, and a couple of other changes. But yes, analog detects that it's an
IIS server, and makes the necessary changes to the draft spec.
One thing you have to be careful to do is log the date on every line of the
logfile, not just the time. Otherwise analog has no way of knowing which
date later lines in the logfile were on (it's not guaranteed that it's
rotated at midnight GMT every day).
