News for the 1.5.10 release
	Mon,  3 Sep 2001 18:47:48 +0200

	The 1.5.9 version was released in a hurry, some features were not
	fully completed, and an appropriate NEWS entry was not written. So
	this one summarizes the changes both in 1.5.9 and 1.5.10:

	* finalized log statement processing flags
	* changed syslog-ng buffering, so writing log messages is buffered (sync(10)
	  now means that ten messages are grouped and written with a single write()
	  syscall)
	* implemented fsync() option to force an fsync(fd) to logfiles after each
	  write
	* implemented quick&dirty stats reporting (now configurable with the
	  stats() global option)
	* updated documentation, now includes recent changes as well (log
	  processing, fsync and stats)

	  and a README file containing a short description for each file
	* more log processing options
          * catchall flag specifies that a given log statement catches all
            messages regardless which sources it refers to
          * final specifies that processing this statement ends message distribution
          * fallback specifies that if a given message doesn't match
            anything it'll be delivered to that statement
        * new destination remctrl which can reopen files based on their
          name

News for the 1.4.10 release (11/27/2000)

	We found a remote DoS attack in 1.4.8 which affects all versions
	prior to 1.4.8. The bugfix release changed log parsing

	macro-expanded files)
	
	Added some new expansion macros: HOUR, MIN and SEC.
	
	Some new global options: 
		time_reap()	the number of seconds when an idle destination 
				file is closed
		use_time_recvd()if you want your date expansion macros to use
				the received time, instead of the time 
				specified in the log message.

	Updated documentation to include the changes above.
	
	Added contrib subdirectory to include init scripts and config files
	for various platforms.

	    AIX support added, HP-UX partially supported (untested))

	exciting new stuff in those releases.
