Hi Rich,
Yeah; we got a little overzealous on that. Let's try this:
Transmission of syslog Messages over UDP [RFC5426] defines how to
provide unreliable, non-secure datagram transport for syslog. This
transport should only be used as described in Section 4.3 of [RFC5426].
Thanks,
Chris

Chis,
I've looked over these changes and feel that they address the WGLC comments
that were received.
I strongly disagree on several counts. First, the new document says:
Transmission of syslog Messages over UDP [RFC5426] defines how to
provide unreliable, non-secure datagram transport for syslog. This
transport is NOT RECOMMENDED.
NOT RECOMMENDED means SHOULD NOT implement. SHOULD NOT implement means
DEPRECATED. There was no WG discussion of deprecating RFC 5426.
In fact, in some cases, protocol security may not be needed, for a
variety of reasons. In other cases, security may already be provided
by, say, IPsec, required in IPv6.
Saying that the work completed just last year is deprecated without
any WG discussion is absurd.
