syslog-ng is an enhanced log daemon, supporting a wide range of input and
output methods: syslog, unstructured text, message queues, databases (SQL
and NoSQL alike) and more.
Key features:
* receive and send RFC3164 and RFC5424 style syslog messages
* work with any kind of unstructured data
* receive and send JSON formatted messages
* classify and structure logs with builtin parsers (csv-parser(),
db-parser(), ...)
* normalize, crunch and process logs as they flow through the system
* hand on messages for further processing using message queues (like
AMQP), files or databases (like PostgreSQL or MongoDB).

Welcome the new syslog-ng 3.27.1.
With this syslog-ng325 will expire one year from now.
Our syslog-ng upstream, Peter Czanik, recommends that syslog-ng327 become
the syslog-ng meta primary: "... sysutils/syslog-ng can be safely pointed
to 3.27 once available."
