I am now again of the view that this is not a problem, but indeed desirable. The only thing we need to make sure is that it follows the same maintenance policies (regarding versions) that rsyslog does. And that's not very hard. Indeed, the whole doc version issue is not so much a real issue IMHO. In fact, we just have two of them a) the old legacy stuff used in v5 b) the new stuff used in v6+ That's the main source of confusion. Otherwise, rsyslog always keeps backward-compatibility very high on the priority list. So actually all we need is "this parameter/module" is available since ... and you are all set. Back to the repo question: I think a separate repo is of big advantage, as access to it, especially commit access, follows quite different paradigms than the main code repository. So I am back to the "let's do a separate one" PoV - maybe better earlier than later (so that other folks can see what's going on). David, all: anything I overlooked?
