Rumours of my death have been greatly exaggerated. I've been stuck writing
Javascript for a while, but I'm back to the REK stack and omriemann.

I got dynstats working pretty quickly by copy/pasting the impstats code.
I'm not proud.

http://io.made.com/blog/shipping-dynstats-metrics-with-omriemann/

Next up I want to implement custom json metrics, so that when a developer
logs something like:

{
   "_riemann_metric": {
     "service": "api.http_response_time",
     "fields": [
         "endpoint": "login"
     ]
  }
}

we can parse it out and forward it into our metric stack.

That's the missing feature that will let me completely replace Logstash
with Rsyslog in our logging stack.
