I even remember that I rephrased the mission statement for a presentation, but guess what ... I can't even find it! At least I admit my fatal fail ;) > > To me, it's not only about syslog, right ... since long... > expecially since the likes of imfile and > imjournal have been introduced.

Actually, we coined that vision looooooong ago (15 years?) for Adiscon's Windows tools, and when I began to work on rsyslog I had that very same idea on my mind. In a somewhat longer text, this means to me that rsyslog should be able to accept, transform, convert, process, forward and emit all types of event logs, making it a kind of universal translator of "logging languages". Thinking about this, would it make to have a mission goal discussion before we go down to the logo question? ;) > Back to the original question, I'm available for a short Skype next week if > I'm needed.

Guess that needs to go first - and we really should try to gain agreement, shouldn't we? Thanks again to everyone. This list is really enlighning. Rainer PS: I may put up a form of the current logo on github as a temporary measure... Just so that you know.
