[tor-dev] SyslogIdentityTag considered to be backported to 0.2.7?

[nusenu]

Hi,

I like weasel's [1] SyslogIdentityTag feature that is available in
debian 0.2.7 packages only.

The ticket [1] suggests that it will be included in tor 0.2.8.x
(milestone). Would you consider to backport it to 0.2.7 as well so other
platforms can make use of it before we see tor 0.2.8 (without having to
ask every package maintainer to maybe ship packages with the patch applied)?

thanks!

The only thing that gets backports to stable releases are security and
compatibility fixes.
