About:
Rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded syslogd. Among other features, it
offers support for on-demand disk buffering, reliable syslog over TCP,
writing to databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and many more), fully
configurable output formats (including high-precision timestamps), the
ability to filter on any part of the syslog message, on-the-wire message
compression, and the ability to convert text files to syslog. It is a
drop-in replacement for stock syslogd and able to work with the same
configuration file syntax.  

Changes:
Complex expression support inside filters was added. It supports filters
with boolean, string, and arithmetic operations. For example, the
following can be used to select syslog messages: "if $syslogfacility-text
== 'local0' and $msg startswith 'DEVNAME' and ($msg contains 'error1' or
$msg contains 'error0') then /var/log/somelog". Those filters work
together with the rest of the logic, including dynamic filename generation
and templates. No other new features or bugfixes are included, so there is
no urge to update for users not interested in the new functionality.
