Hi all,
again, I have been quite busy the past days. A lot was rsyslog related, but phpLogCon also kept me busy. I am still working on TLS support with some occasional bug-hunting in between.
TLS support grew too a much larger project than it initially looked. In short, it caused a more or less complete rewrite of the base networking classes. Quite complex work, even though it doesn’t involve lots of code (I am always surprised how few code changes actually happen). I am going slowly but steadly through it and hope that we will have an even better abstraction of the networking classes when I am done. In the long term, it will probably also affect gssapi (in a positive way) which could finally lead to a fully generic, driver-based and highly flexible networking model. Well worth the wait, I’d say… ;)
So here is the past day’s rsyslog work log:
