* Package name    : libnet-syslog-perl
  Version         : 0.04
  Upstream Author : Les Howard <les@lesandchris.com>
* URL             : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Net-Syslog/

  Programming Lang: Pure Perl
  Description     : Perl module for sending syslog messages to remote server

 Net::Syslog implements the UDP syslog forwarding protocol (RFC 5426).
 It is not intended to replace the Sys::Syslog or Unix::Syslog modules, but 
 instead provides a method of using syslog when a local syslogd is 
 unavailable or when you need to send messages directly to a remote syslogd.

i'm retracting my itp:

* found out that the upstream has vanished a good 5 years ago,
* the license on cpan isn't automatically "like perl" as i thought, and 
as upstream didn't set one explicitely the license of this module 
is more like "utter limbo"), 
* and the final nail in the coffin is that i found out in the meantime 
that the core module sys::syslog (version 0.29++) can do all that this 
small module does (and more).

regards
az
