Package: nginx
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

The free version of nginx doesn't have any syslog features. These
very important for advanced logging, and the existing workarounds
that don't require modifying nginx, like logging to a named pipe
have performance and/or reliability problems.

The "udplog" module available at

  https://github.com/vkholodkov/nginx-udplog-module

works reliably and allows one to log to a syslog daemon listening
on a UDP socket. This would be a very welcome addition to the nginx
package in Debian.

If you decide to include udp log, make sure to get the code tagged
as "1.0.0c" in the above repository, as currently the master branch
contains non-working code.
