Yes that's my reaction also.

System admins might regard multi-threaded as the key to high
performance. As programmers we consider it the key to increased
complexity and therefore more bugs.

I'm quite optimistic we will soon know about the main bugs of rsyslog,
because Fedora is using that now as their main syslog server - so we can
happily package it now, view what happens on Fedora and use it. (And,
BTW, I was next to packaging rsyslog myself, but I decided I'm already
involved in far too many tasks, so didn't do it.)

i've too worked on packing this software into a debian package.
i guess you're better in doing that as it would have been my first
.deb ;)

anyways, i am willing to test the package and file reports.

kind regards,
raoul bhatia
