OK, I'll let the patch linger in my working copy and the list since it is
trivial anyway. When/if you want to make it ready (later I've understood?), I
will gladly help there, since it's going to be easier for me to not deviate
much from Debian.
But note that, unless I'm missing something, the gateway is quite different in
features from what I've found about rsyslog. In our case we need to log quite
aggressively during development, since is mostly debugging messages that we
add to service on an embedded device. Since we have no GUI at all, we log to
the journal categorized messages. We can easily query the gateway for those
with a GUI. It won't be that easy with a syslog, as I understand it.
Thank you.
