Hi WG, just a by-note, so that everybody is aware of this: we are changing the facility from a few defined values to a very broad range (unsigned int 32, if nobody objects). Please note that some existing implementations of syslog (namely at least the stock linux versions) use a table of PRI values to guide there processing.
Adapting them to the new scheme will require considerate redesign of that part of the code. As the whole syslogd is just around ~3000 lines of not-so-complex code, I think that should not stop us from making these changes. I just wanted to make sure that everybody is aware of this implication. Rainer
