  Description     : improved Logger replacement that logs to syslog

Logger::Syslog is a Logger replacement that logs to syslog. It is almost
drop-in with a few caveats. Add Logger::Syslog to your Rails production
environment to aggregate logs between multiple machines.                        
                                                                                
This particular Logger::Syslog improves the original by correctly
mapping Rails log severities to the Syslog counterparts. It also adds
the ability to select a syslog facility other than "user".
                                                                                

I intend to maintain this package under the umbrella of Debian Ruby team. This
package is a new dependency of new chef's release.
