Hold on, cowboy.  I have an update of a draft RFC, not an already
passed standards track document.  If you want, I can bang it into
shape.

The original stuff was by someone else, who wanted to change the
face of logging.  That's just not going to happen, and they were
kind of mistaken to try and get away from syslog, and they didn't
provide real state information (both of which I don't do).

Needless to say, the first one by the other author didn't pass the
IETF, so it's a hard row to hoe.
